I've only had mine for a brief time but I haven't heard the fart nosie since I put mine in. The shift time is too quick.
However, I have been manually shifting for most of the time so this may be why I haven't heard it.
What stage kit are you going to get? Mike will custom make the kit depending on how hard you want it to shift....he keyed mine as a 1.25 kit (it's still brutal) _________________

I have a 1.5 shift kit in mine,
I don't have that flutter between gears and it shifts quite quick but I must say it shifts quite hard as well.
I think I should have gone to a stage one for a every day car.
Every time my car shifts it makes the TRC go on.
I think its a good upgrade.
I want to fit a 2800 3000 stall to try and get it off the line harder. _________________

Mine does something like this on 2-3rd change @ full boost on cold nights. When it changes, the gearbox warning light comes on, and car hesitates for a second, then tears off like a wounded bull in 3rd. _________________
Has anyone really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like?

Have you tried pulling the TRC fuse?
I've had mine out for 6 months or more and never had any issues. _________________

Thats with TRC off. But I could pull the fuse again, just dunno how much I like the idea of that car in winter with no TRC.
weak!
just gotta be a bit more gentle at takeoff or around a corner.... or not, depending on how you feel. sure gets the adrenaline pumping _________________

I landed the aristo in a petrol station, across the road from a cop shop with the TRC fuse out, car snapped 2nd half way round the corner. Not looking to repeat the trip _________________
