Default noisy clutch.....

hey guys i just got a act clutch and 13 lbs fly wheel installed in my 05 and its way better than stock but when deceleration between 3500rpm and 2500rpm it make this horrible noise that i dont really know how to describe. its almost like i can hear everything spinning around in there and its pretty loud. i also get a very small shutter when i slip the clutch out, even if its slipping out at higher rpm like 1500rpm-2000rpm. the place that installed it said that its normal with an after market clutch but im not really convinced. anyone have similar issues? i bought the clutch from alex at the speed syndicate and he said it was the same one that clement had when he had his kraftwerks kit. clement if your reading this please comment!!!

thanks for your help guys.

I can't imagine beefing up any part of the original drivetrain without there being some noise associated , post a video

yeah it's noisy, annoying, nothing much you can do unless you want to change the clutch plate
