I have the same clutch but DMFW and there is zero chatter or rough engagement; it is like stock in that regard. All of that is a result of the SMFW.

I want to go single turbo, but I cannot live with idle chatter in a BMW. I wonder why there aren't sprung clutches made for these flywheels (or are the ones for the SMFW sprung?).
