Default ESC Clutch Driveline Resonance

A few months ago I installed an ECS stage one clutch with the steel flywheel. I don't get any gear chatter which is great. The issue is that I get some serous driveline related vibrations if I give the car more than 20% throttle below 2k rpm. At 2k rpm and above it completely goes away. This is not the result of me stepping on it and cogging the engine down low. Even a little throttle at 1800 rpm causes a serious vibration. Everyone who drives my car is alarmed by it.

Does anyone else have this problem? I have never read about it before but then again most people seem to have the aluminum flywheel. I am guessing that this is just a result of removing the dual mass flywheel and I have to live with it but I wanted to make sure there was nothing that I can do to fix it.

Thanks in advance.

Default You went from a dual-mass flywheel....

which was designed to dampen out those vibrations, to a single mass flywheel. What your experiencing is normal. I had the same issue when I had the Spec single mass light-weight flywheel.
