I'm seeing several people mention increased NVH noise. Are you experiencing much?

Do you think your going to still see an improvement over the Barton two post bracket installed?

I'm really not getting any extra noise at all. As far as compared to barton I'm sure barton would be better over all but it works just fine for me and I race nearly every weekend. And we're talking 35$ compared to 300ish.

Yeah true that I already installed the two post and am contemplating a short throw shifter or just getting this next.
Good to hear that your not experiencing more noise

I picked up a little more of the exhaust note when I installed the Whiteline bushing, but don't notice it at all now. Definitely helped the stock shifter for "spirited" driving on the street. Haven't had the chance to take it to the track yet.

I'm constantly being locked out when shifting over 6,500 rpm, I have the whiteline trans bushing already, stock clutch, fluid etc. I have no taken the shift spring out yet, but I still suffer from the clutch pedal sticking to the floor at high rpm shifts. I do have more vibration through the car since installing the trans bushing. I've purchased a steel braided clutch line from AM. It's theorized that the plastic hydraulic clutch line swells/flexes at high rpm causing the system to not have enough fluid to correctly engage/disengage the clutch to shift properly. I'm going to see BacaDiesel (Frank) tonight to get my line replaced and will let you guys know if it resolves my issue.

Let me know how the clutch line does. I may look into this. I have experienced grinding with the clutch pedal down to what I thought was the floor. Maybe this will fix the issue.

Problem resolved, went to Northstar on Friday night, (I'm a newb at the strip) but I ran a 7.785 @101.49 and had 0 shift lock outs. However, I still have the issue of the spring assist keeping the clutch pedal stuck to the floor. I'm removing that spring this week. Should be good to go after that!
