RPS Clutch question

Hey guys the time has come to replace the clutch. I drive the car fairly aggressive and the clutch gets abused a quite a bit, so I am opting for just a stage 1 maybe a stage 2 full disk, and I also want to throw in a new flywheel.
I understand the issues with chatter for a lighter flywheel, but I haven't heard much from anyone using an RPS flywheel. I had an RPS Max full disk in my S14 and loved it, so I'm trying to go the same route in the G.

Any of you guys with an RPS clutch/flywheel setup have any noise issues?

DemonteVerde has the RPS clutch and flywheel in his car and he loves it. Flywheels kinda loud but its expected when you llighten up.

Thanks I actually decided on the Competition Clutch stage 2/flywheel combo since I live in Georgia and can take advantage of that local discount. I will write a review on their flywheel/clutch shortly after the break-in period.

Can the RPS clutch be used with the stock flywheel? I have the JWT clutch wiht the lighter flywheel for the past couple of years. My shop insisted on doing the flywheel and basicallly said it had to be done. I can't stand the noise of it sounding like a $hitbox all the time. I refuse to get a lighter flywheel with my next clutch and I'm hoping the RPS can be installed with the stock flywheel. I don't care if it's slightly less performance.

I am going to have to change my clutch as well. I have a vortech supercharger installed, so i am thinking of getting the comp stage 4 clutch and flywheel combo. I just can't find any reviews any where.

OP I have a competition stage 2 with stock flywheel. It's pretty stiff, but not too stiff
