Well the clutch is the Blitz Single Active Clutch and fly

Well, the noise can be best described as if one had really bad brakes where the metal piece was rubbing on the rotor.

Its like "khrhhrrhrrrrrr".

Its ONLY when the clutch pedal is pressed in.

Doesnt happen when pulling away, so if you're thinking chatter, its not.

It really hasnt effect performance at all. I've got about 600 miles on it, so the breakin period is almost over.

Overall it grabs very nice.

Some people have told me that a clutch of this nature are notorious for this sort of noise.

I just want to clarify that if it is indeed true.

I want to make sure before I turn the boost back up

Not to steal thread, but I have a Exedy Stage II and when the clutch pedal is in and I'm in gear (first or reverse) and sometimes if the car is not moving, I hear a grinding in the gear box until I put it in neutral and let off the clutch pedal. Also, every once in a while it grinds when going in to second for no apparent reason.
