Your opinion means nothing until you get back in the FI'd club.

Seriously, though, that's not always the case. With daily driving, the car is pretty much stock since it is hardly in boost. When I'm in boost, it's typically half throttle around 3-4k RPM. That's usually when I'm getting on the freeway or trying to catch up in traffic.

The 1st transmission endured more punishment. With the 2nd transmission, I only had it for 3 months and it did not endure much punishment due to extreme hot weather over the summer.

What's interesting is the gearbox for all 3 transmissions (including the original) feel quite a bit different. The newest one feels so might tighter, and there is slightly more resistance. It's not notchy, but I can definitely feel the gears or something. What I find different is a noticeably louder whine in 2nd that I didn't hear before with the other transmissions.

So far no issues getting in any of the gears. No notchiness.
