Default Hypershift - which throw option

I am having one installed and was curious what people are choosing, the short shift or the super short shift option. Looks like either a 20% or 40% reduction respectively. IMO it's like your buddy offering to buy you a drink and asks if you want a double. Why of course, give me the double!

Default Are the issues with engaging reverse resolved with "shortest" setting?

I have had some problems with hanging up in the 2>3 and 4>5 upshifts. Only when quickly shifting. It may be ME but didn't have these with the S4. Also does the new shifter need a new grip or will the existing one transfer?

Default I am having serious problems with reverse, but I haven't a chance to try readjusting yet.

I am using the 40% shortest setting.

Is the 20% setting better for getting into reverse? 1st is kind of a bitch, too... but 2-6 are great.

Default You have to take it apart, and realign the lower bolt and hold it diagonal towards the passenger...

I had the same problem and Strat fixed it over the phone while I had my hands in the car.
