My 2014 sounds the same after having installed the Whiteline Positive Shift kit (and MTEC shifter springs, which I don't expect has an effect on the sound). I installed the Whiteline kit at the same time I replaced my flywheel and clutch and thought for sure it was something to do with those components, but it seems like that may not be the case. Also, I switched over from OEM to Motul gear oil at the same time.

Personally, I kinda like the new gear whine because it helps me imagine I'm driving a WEC LMP1 car
