Yes.
If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of. |

I don't think I've heard how much noise they make. Would you need ear plugs with 23/30/23 ? (stripped out interior) |

SC drops are not nice for long journeys.

If you don't like the noise you could always use helicoil drops on a sc gearset, robert is using this set up on over 200horses, this is what I am using but not yet drove the car

You should hear the gearbox a bit benny but I reckon it should be fairly quiet. If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of. |

To my mind it will be the same sound as when driving in first with the standard box, only with every gear st cut. one day boost will be mine!

I don't mind some noise (use to the noise of dry clutch motorcycle) but wouldn't like to end up with some like http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fgy9vc4rf90 |

Mine gets in the way a bit, but only when it is up. If it is down it does not cause a problem. |

Helicoils are actually stronger due to the larger surpface area, sc items reduce side load Audi s4 b5 - 470bhp & 486ft lbs

Just a note. It's helical not helicoil. :) If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of. |
