Hi guys,
i'm new to the forum, and i just got my Axial Flow short shifter installed... and although the throws are extremely short (shorter than an s2k's), i find one thing very annoying and don't know if it's normal...

I can hear the "gears" or syncros, or whatever it is "whirling" when i'm at the high rev bands. Is this normal? And the car, from the interior, just seems louder...

did i install something wrong??

help please!

 

Richard Paul (owner of Axial Flow) talked about this a while back. When you installed it did you remove the little green ring ? Try that it may help.

 

What little green ring? I don't remember seeing a little green ring.

 

Check the DIY.....

 

Yes sir... i also spoke to Axial flow.. they were very helpful. I got rid of it, and the sound is bearable now... great product i must say!!

shifts are precise and i don't know how i managed w/o it.

The green ring is the foam like insulator or something that is right underneath the leather boot. it's like a big cloth lint ball... (green in color)
