rattle rattle rattle
It never did it as much before I added the exhaust, I can live with it but is there a way you can get rid of the rattle that is happening where your shifter is? (Console) the plastic part that moves with the shifter? Can you just pop it out?
Thanks!!
Thanks!!

What I did is put a lot of grease between the plastic thingy's. That worked quite well but I am thinking about fabing up a one piece unit for it out of steel. I'll let you guys know how it works out.

Mine used to rattle in the WS6 when I had an ORY setup. But that went away once I put some cats on to take the edge of the exhaust note some.....

I stuffed some insulation in there, but it gets started from time to time and makes me crazy. Sound like yours?
something else, i havent removed my AIR pump yet, and just have the hose tucked away. its making a very obnoxious whistling noise while its on for the first few minutes afetr startup. and the whistle grows louder with revs. i cant wait for a ricer to ask me if i have a turbo!
