[QUOTE="CobraBob, post: 14551254, member: 6727"] Just to clear something up, aftermarket billet shifters will increase the level of noise making its way into the cabin compared to the stock shifter. The billet shifter better conducts sound. But my shifter base gasket helps to block much of the noise that otherwise would travel through the shifter into the cabin. The thicker material I've been using increased the sound insulation quality of the gasket. That said, every car is different. Some transmissions are noisier than others, hence more noise entering the cabin. In most cases, the noise reduction is very noticeable. In extreme cases, you might want to go so far as to use sound insulating material inside the shifter boot. I've never heard of anyone taking the extreme step of adding more floor insulation, but if you need to, why not. [/QUOTE]
