QM Twin Installed Loud Noise

So i had a QM twin installed (Old Black version) and drives fine but Every time I press the clutch pedal in it makes an awful screeching noise and its very loud . Once I start to ease off of the pedal and as soon as it starts to engage the noise immediately stops. When in gear there is no noise, only when the pedal is pressed. Help Please!!!!! Thanks

EDIT: Heres the vid. It dosent sound normal to me.

its normal for that clutch there is really no way of getting around the noise you are also not going to get very many miles out of it but its a great clutch and will hold a ton of power.

100 % normal. I have 2 friends with the same clutch it sounds exactly the same. I make fun of them because my tripple is quiet if compared.

I am running a corbonetics twin disk and it has the same sound. It makes sounds at a dead stop with clutch pushed in, and when decelerating. While engaged and cruising it it quiet as can be.

Sounds normal. Just be sure that your clutch is properly adjusted to prevent damaging the htob and pressure plate.

I have the same clutch. Mine doesn't squeal when pushing in the clutch, but the chatter is pretty much just like mine. I have had two of these clutches, both of them sounded the same, so it is normal.

If you researched before you bought that clutch, you'd see plenty of people say it is louder than most.

I'm having what seems like the same sound coming from my Exedy twin with ams push type conversion

Still running strong so I haven't dropped the transmission to check it out.

NAW man! That is not normal! You got some metal on metal action goin on in there. When you push the clutch in all you should hear is a slight bearing noise which is the throw out bearing spinning. If you really feel it sounds like hell then you need to take it apart and find out whats up. Sounds to me like the throw out bearing is bad or something is wrong with the clutch.Sorry for the bad news, pulling the tranny is a tough job.

Dude some times the shifter will vibrate with the scraping noise and its loud even while driving, its even worse between shifts when the rpm was high. It cant be normal...
