Hmm it is just weird that I can definatly hear it on the video...
It happens when my turbo is not spooling but when I am taking off from a stop
Here are another two vids (no clutch noise) if you guys want to compare it.

And yes I can feel it a little bit through the clutch pedal. (very slight vibration)
Frank at AAM ruled it out to throw out bearing but I need more input on this problem. It started happening after I adjusted the engagement point a little lower and yes I did without putting it down too far.

Girly robot voice - "In about two mile keep too the left!"
Lol Yeah I do hear what your talking about from the earlier vid just wanted to *** with you first. I hear if you have a Light weight Flywheel you will get a noise. Is it light weight?

No problems in the clutch. It runs great and grabs fine. Just the noise that bothers me sometimes. Clutch has been in for 2500 miles and the noise started after I adjusted my engagement point. AAM did the install and yes it was the complete JWT kit with the throw-out bearing. The noise doesn't depend on the weather from what I can tell and it is not getting any worse. It just anoys me when I hear it.. (little things bother me a lot)

I have the JWT combo too, and there is some chatter... I chaulk it up to the much lighter fly-wheel.
But I have also heard other clutch/fly wheel combo's and some of them produce even more noise.
So at idle in a quiet area you can hear the fly-wheel chatter, not a lot just a little... Then if I press the clutch in it goes away, so when driving in parking lots of areas where I am in first-second gears... I am riding the clutch more to avoid making chatter sounds that others outside the car can hear.
Anywho good luck on figuring it out.

Well, I know what chatter is and I am actually suprised how quite it is with the JWT clutch. Anyways, that hollow noise you hear is exactly what I hear in person.. nothing more or nothing less

After that all that can be done is a disassembly and visual inspection by a talented eye
