Default Tanoga

We've recently been selling the Tanoga and I have to say that I'm very impressed with the quality. They feel great. You can get the Tanoga from us, Avalon or AWE.

Default tanoga with the bearings is sweet plus upgrade the **** with something a bit heavier....

I have a momo carbon fiber shot shift **** very nice and a little higher than stock which I like. Shifts like silk just need to get some motul 600 in there to make it even smoother.

Default Question on Tanoga as this is the one I would get if I decide to do it...

what reduction percentages does it offer and also, if it says 40%, is that mean 40% less than stock, or 40% of stock (i.e., 60% reduction)? I've dry shifted a UUC at 40%, and it's too much of a reduction for me. I want something that reduces the throws less, but don't know if that means 30% or 70%, see my point.

Oh, and does it reduce the height of the shift know in relation to the console at all? I want one that preserves the OEM height. TIA!

Default Tanoga only one setting ~50%, not adjustable. But I would say it's about a 40% reduction....

...in real world terms. I think ALL the quoted reduction numbers are a bit optimistic. I would subtract 5% to 10% off whatever the quoted numbers are to get a real world value.

The Tanoga is comparable to the UUC at 40%, a bit shorter throw.

Default So if I want something that's less reduction, do I want a 30%??? Also, what about the shift height..

does it change it at all. Thanks.

Default I tried the UUC at 20/30/40 and think 30% is the smoothest. I don't recall the shift height...

...changing.

Best to contact Toy Guy about his mod. It's really the best in my opinion. :-)

Default Is 20% a bigger or smaller reduction than 40%, meaning...

is it 20% reduction or 20% of stock (i.e., 80% reduction)?

Default

20% reduction = 20% reduction from stock. 30% reduction = 30% reduction from stock, etc...

Default Thanks

Thanks for all of your help...although census stated Tanoga, I opted for Stratmosphere due to the adjustability.
