Actually you're not alone. There's a lot of people that don't like the tight shifters.

I also prefer the OEM throw on my street cars. But for my race car there is no question.. I love the feel of xschop's short shifter in my race car. Nice quick, firm, short shifts.

I like the short shifters because I'm tall-ish (6' 2")' and when I'm strapped into my racing harness it's a bit of a reach to the gear shifter in 3rd and 5th. Sure, I can do it, but bringing it a bit closer helps. I had a short-throw shifter in the 924S, but I'm going to try this route in the turbo.

Btw, XSchop sold the last batch for $153 shipped, so your price may be adjusted a bit if you want it to sell quickly. GLWS

If no-one else has claimed it I will buy it. Plus I am in San Diego which should not be too far from you.

Let me know.
