seems interesting, does anyone have one that can report?<ul><li><a href="http://www.ecstuning.com/stage/edpd/pagebuild_v2.cgi?make=Audi&amp;engine=225HP&amp;mo del=TT&amp;submodel=Quattro&amp;category=Drivetrai n&amp;subcategory=Short%20Shifters">Link me.</a></li></ul>

Looks like it "might" work with the billet/heimjoint part of the DG ultra

Default as well as the side to side throw reduction offered by DG...

it doesn't make sense to shorten the throw from top to bottom if you can't also shorten the side to side. Would make for a very uneven feeling in the shift pattern.

Why would anyone want to change a perfectly good shifter? (Hi dougie ;-)

Default the DG shortens side to side (slightly), with a shorten front to back...but would

be nice to have a slightly less front to back movement.
