Save your money and just push the pedal in


(serious question now: Since we are removing the dampner and do not have perfectly balanced parts, hence the noise, does this shorten the life of the tranny components?

No. Everything is still round and balanced...just lighter. The dampener is just a rubber "O'ring" between the flywheel and the ring gear, I believe. John?

It is commonly described as sounding like a bucket of loose bolts rattling around. I would say that is a somewhat close desciption. If you are in traffic and stopped at a light, the sound will bounce off the cars around you and it sounds like your car is falling apart, has loose metallic parts, etc. and people will look like "what the F...is wrong with that Porsche". Of course, you know nothing is wrong, but that is how it sounds.
