1. look at the link speed-er doc posted.
2. don't have the beep recorded so I can't help with that. just roll up the windows run it to 34 MPH in 1st and you'll hear it (it is faint just listen close) also you could do a search for the top gear video it has the beep in it.

3. it allows the engine rev up and down faster. It will get you to speed faster but it also makes it a little harder to keep the motor in the sweet spot while shifting.
