Ok serious and maybe related question....i've seen some Subarus with this kind of whirring mechanical gearbox noise....similar to a supercharger whine....how does one get this?

I read somewhere it was as simple as a tranny mount?

ISDISTRUE?

I know it's kind of ricey but it actually sounds really good...

You're most likely referring to a straight cut gear set/dog box whine...to get this sound will cost $$$$

run your amp power cable next to your speaker cables and you'll get the whine you're after
