Pretty sure they are disticnt with their loud whine if you ever watch youtube vids with a sequential. |
Gear whine has as much to do with gear cut as whether or not its a sequential... Most of the loud whines you hear on youtube is because of straight cut sequential shift gearboxes.

Reverse gears in most manual gearboxes are straight cut. That's the reason most cars have gear whine when reversing.
