If there's no difference or if the Hurst is better, I'll go with Hurst. Just by looking at sigs, it looks like people are about 50/50 between Hurst and B&M.

I've always bought B&M for automatic shifters,and Hurst for Manual Trans, but I think both make a good product.
My thirdgen has a Hurst Competition Plus on the T5,but I've heard that the Pro-5.0 is the best for Tremec TKO that I'll be swapping in the spring.

I've got the B&M Ripper. Love it. Simply a matter of choice and price, in my opinion. By the way, I went with the Ripper because the stock boot and **** work.

I used the stock boot with my hurst too, I bought a new ****(black with white 5 speed pattern). I think they're about the same price.
