clutch noise

i have a brand new fidanza flywheel and act hd 6 puck clutch in my car. ive almost got 500 miles on the setup and it started about 200 miles ago, when you let off the clutch to move it makes a groaning noise. i ve never heard this type of noise before coming from a car. it only does it when taking off goin forward not backwards. it sounds like the clutch is making a high fequency humming noise kinda groaning. drives great and shifts fine to. no other problems but the noise

by the way, a lot of people with those clutches say there kind of cheap, and not very reliable, so mabe its parts failure.

The ceramic clutches require very little break in if any. Is it a high pitched squeak? Sort of like eek, eek, eek, in cadence with a chatter.... Act's are renowned for that. If its more of a lower pitched grown, I would double check everything.
