true, but if you have enough power requiring this type of gear set or something along those lines and you have to drive 6+ hours a lot, don't you think you should be driving a different vehicle or if you are taking the car to a track maybe trailering the thing? I'm not telling you how to do something I'm just throwing that out there, I understand what you are saying. For all of those saying that can't handle the gear whine, I don't get it. I daily my car still and the gear whine is fine to me, I can still listen to my music with the windows down and have conversations with my wife in the car without yelling. Learn to use throttle manipulation to keep the whine to a minimum and bada bing bada boom. I am able to tune out the gear whine and it just doesn't bother me.
