Default Clutch Problem...Please help

I installed a new Exedy stage 2 clutch and flywheel this weekend. Everything went fine while installing it, no problems. When I finished I took it around the block and the car bogged badly everytime i shifted, when engaging the clutch in every gear 1-2-3 it seems like you need to give it A LOT of gas. Anyone know what I need to do???

I have double checked everything. Then I took the car out for another drive, I notice at high speeds everything is ok, the clutch is fine no slipping, goes in gear fine, there is pressuer on the pedal, the only problem is shifts at low speeds and low RPMs the whole car shakes, its not normal(i know how to drive stick). In 1st you have to rev it up to about 2500-3500 RPMs, to get it smooth and in every other gear you need to shift after 4500 RPMs. Has anyone experianced something like this? Should I just drive then car and break in the clutch and see what happends?

It's your new lighter flywheel. With a lighter flywheel, revs drops faster and you need to keep the RPM high for the clutch to engage smoothly. It's about inertia.
