Default Centerforce Clutch

Has anyone installed a Centerforce clutch and flywheel package. Does this clutch make much more noise than the stock one?

I ran a centerforce 12" dual friction clutch w/ fidanza flywheel a while back and worked nicely, not sure what you mean by noise, but it didn't chatter

I have a couple of friends who have Centerforce clutches. One has the Fidanza Al flywheel, the other a steel FW. Both are very happy. No noise, no chatter.

Similar to stock. Different pickup point on the clutch, but runs very nice. I used to drive mine in heavy traffic. No problems at all.

I have it with the stock flywheel and it makes a lot of noise when you come out of gear and coast up to a stop light. It makes a similar sound as when you shut the car down without putting it in neutral. I never noticed the noise until I got rid of the B&B bullets but now it is pretty annoying. The clutch holds the power nicely and the pedal feel is pretty close to stock.
