OH I forgot to mention...

If any of you have seen my other endless posts about a whine type noise that I cannot for the life of me get rid of (almost like a supercharger whine while accelerating, most noticeable under load at 70mph in 5th), the end of the story is now here.

I didn't even have to bring it up, the guy said "it used to make this whine sound, a little louder than all my buddies boxsters, and I kinda liked it".

To which I replied "like straight cut gears or a supercharger while accelerating?"

Yep, it did it for him too. He said the guys at the shop thought it was fine (they also thought it had e-throttle), and given the fact that I have extinguished all avenues of hope without pulling the engine out, I am no longer concerned. The sound hasn't changed in many months, so I suppose I'll leave it at that.
