Default So will a SS make the 1-2 shift easier?
I know the shorter height will require more force to move the **** around, but I'm wondering if a SS can make it easier to get in to 2nd at high rpms. Will it reduce the 'resistance' or however you want to describe it? The 1->2 is such a pain in the ***, I feel like I have to work to get the shifter in to 2nd at anything over 3k.

Default Not really, SS generally makes it a bit notchier...
Though if you spend time adjusting it, the shifting gets better.

Ever think of some Redline MT90?
