hurst is the way to go, ive got the one with adjustable stops and it rules, you can really shift fast and hard with it. theyve been making shifters for a long time.

the hurst is a very nice unit, i have driven a car with one at an auto-x event. i made sure to use all three of them (B&M, Hurst, Pro5.0) before i bought mine, i prefer the pro5.0 over the rest, the hurst is a very close 2nd, and b&m is a distance third.

Pro 5.0. It is the coolest feeling shifter ever. Very strong, doesn't flex at all, shifts are rediculously short, and it makes a wicked "clink" sound whenever you shift.

I'll third that for Pro 5.0......even though I've never owned one of the others, it made a huge diff. over stock.
