Default HELP! Weird vibration after taking off in first gear.

This is on my sisters 2005 Civic Ex. Well, when she takes off in first, right before the clutch is fully realesed, the car vibrates vigorously and it's very noticeable. It also happens in 2nd gear but not too noticeable. Anyone have any ideas? I think its the clutch but her car only has 19k mi on it and it's fairly new. It drives fine while in gear and stuff, it's just right at the end of take off or right before the clutch is fully released. Any thoughts?

I dunno exactly what it is , I actually started noticing it the day after I had my exhaust done but I don't see how that could have anything to do with that so I am banking on the clutch myself so I am going to continue with my turbo set up figuring if it is the clutch I will just toast it the buy an aftermarket ...if it is something more then what the heck d17s are cheaper than a new set of tires almost

Thanks for the link. Well my sisters car has been sitting for a weeks period since she doesn't drive it much while parked at college. I'm guessing the flywheel has developed alot of glaze on it and the clutch disc must be slipping from that. Thanks for all the help guys.
