ive done 430miles in my mini since saturday afternoon, im trying to get it run in this week. and my head and ears are still ringing from the noise of me straight cut gears and drops, ive got a rattle type noise on idle, which goes when clutch pressed drop clatter is this normal and my gears are very loud, suppose its louder cos me cars stripped out. but are they supposed to be very loud? no longer a series, but still 1.3 turbo.

I think the clatter/chatter is normal.

prepare yourself for everyone to frown upon your car and ask what that rattle is |

It is nothing actually rattling, it is more the gears chattering against each other as they spin over. Once under load you lose the chattering and instead get the whine we all know and love.

an old mini tuner that lives on the Isle of Man told me block to box gasket thickness can make the difference here. "Turbo's make torque, and torque makes fun"
