You can manually shift with the stock shifter, the dual gate would just look nicer.

The dual gate also has stops in the race gate to prevent overshifting when you're upshifting manually.

Yes, the Dual/Gate 2 only works with 4 speed automatics like yours.

so does anyboyd have this in their car? i was looking at this thing too cause it looks sweet. my main question would be does it fit in the console of an '88 Formula (since the note in the catalogue says it's only for Camaros)?
