Well it is obviously 2nd gear noise. What shifter and upper handle are you using / what body-closure boot are you using and does it have any gaps at the shifter? These are the isolation tools used in the car. You may need to "tune " the installation/ insulation.

The tune I'm talking about is the isolation. The B&M shifters and sticks I've seen have no isolation at all.This would let noise come up from the tunnel.If it started after a tune( was nit there before) check for a gap in the body-closure boot. The tunnel should be fully isolated from the cabin. Any gap around the shifter will allow noise in.Check all shifter positions .
