1st gear is definitely noisy almost sound like straight cut gear. on the other hand differential gear makes a lot of noise and people had mistaken it for a supercharger on mine, but I had installed SPL solid diff bushings. it shouldn't be that pronounced with everything stock and interior ungutted, but again the sound level is all relative from person t operson. does the sound pitch get higher even after you change gear to 2nd? or pitch starts again low when u go in 2nd?
