Do you think it's an exhaust problem or gear box?

And what are the estimated repair costs for such a thing??

This is the first time I have really pushed it over 4.000 RPM quite disappointing really.
Then sounds like something was weak and waiting to fail. You should be able to get over 6k with no worries. My question was redline. This is the first performance car I've owned.

Noise does not get faster, just louder? Does it stop if clutch is pressed in while still in second? Odd that 2nd gear only.
