Default Which clutches chatter???

I've got a Clutchnet Stage II (6-puck, sprung) and the chatter is getting annoying. I get chatter out of all the gears if I shift hard, and out of 1st no matter what I do. Not to mention the pedal feel is spongy, but I digress.

Do ACT X/SS or HD/SS or clutchmasters clutches chatter badly? I'm only putting down about 220ish whp now, but I plan on having about 300 after the summer.

Does a clutch exist that can hold this power and at the same time, not chatter?

My Clutchnet Stage II 6-puck, sprung chattered everytime I started out. The people who I bought it from said that it was normal. Very annoying.
I got an Action 2MD 6 puck, unsprung and it does not make any noise unless I really goof up.

Clutch Masters Stage 3 in the lude chatters like no tommorow, with fidanza flywheel, gets really annoying . I pulled my trans last week to find that the springs got a little loose.

Yeah the ACt 6 puck chatters too but it has alot to do with the way u drive it also..The street discs are very tame compared to the 6pucks...for ur HP I would prob go with the street disk...

My Action 1MD unsprung 6puck only chatters if I seriously under-rev it when taking off, or when I'm late with the clutch when shifting.

Any clutch kit without a full-face clutch disc will chatter.

Imagine the clutch disc vibrating against the flywheel or pressure plate.

break in does not matter on a puck style clutch...

My CM Stage 3 chattered in 1st gear when taking off for about 3 months. Then one weekend after an autocross it just stopped chattering and now acts just like the stock clutch did.
