Tilton clutch wierd noise. HELP PLEASE!

Ok so I had my tilton clutch installed about 400 miles ago. And it is making a horribly loud noise under engagement. I called AMS and they said this is normal with that series clutch. The noise is only under engagement, and makes no noise under driving or accleration. My question is:

Does anyone have the twin organic clutch set? And if so, does it make a horribly loud noise when engaging?

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I had put 750 miles on it, and raced a few friends. After I launched it a few times, the noise went away. so its all good. Wierd thouhg. I was quite scared. haha

Thanks guy for the help.
