Default New exedy stage 1 clutch kit vibration

My 2006 CRV had a clutch chatter issue, so I decided to replace it.

I just finished putting an RSX-S Exedy stage 1 organic clutch kit in my 2006 CRV. I mated the clutch to a brand new OEM Honda RSX-S flywheel. I replaced all my engine mounts. Replaced and bled the clutch hydraulics.

When it release the clutch in 1st the car vibrates horribly. I'm wondering if I screwed up or if this could be part of the clutch break in process.

Does anyone have and insights into this issue?

Thanks

After driving for a day this issue seems to be getting better, or I'm learning to deal with it better. No matter how slow I release the clutch the CRV demands I give it gas or it chatters, which makes driving in traffic really suck. Down shifting without keeping the rpm up also causes chatter. Stopping on a hill also sucks.

Also I should have mentioned I reinforced my engine mounts with soft silicone. Vibrations in the engine bay are much more pronounced now.
