Default 915 shifter upgrades

I'm enjoying my new to me 78 SC. I've had 915 equipped 911's previously so I'm used to the transmission. I am considering adding a Wevo shifter to improve the feel and have now learned about the RennShift unit which is a direct competitor to Wevo. I need some advice from you experts. Is a change to either of these shifters warranted for a performance and cost perspective? The RennShifter is about half the price of the Wevo but my decision isn't driven strictly by cost. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks, Bryan

I need to correct my own post. The price of both shifters is about the same at around $600. Still looking for advice on which way to go. Thx
