Default I don't think you're going to find a 40-50% reduction without increased notchiness.........

Find some people in your area with different shifters and take their cars for a drive. You'll know quickly which ones you prefer.

You might want to try Piggie's shifter or ToyGuys (both modified stockers and smooth as possible)...

I use a B&M after trying UUC and Toyguy. I like the notchiness and shorter throw. Shifter feel is pretty subjective IMO.
