The shortest throw is the Steeda TriAX and the UPR Blue Thunder

the nicest one and the one that everyone is going to agree with me is for you to get the MGW

I thought that the Pro 5.0 was supposedly the best..

I personally like the Hurst. I had no probs with them in my Camaros.

I might try something new though since this car isn't a Camaro.

Pro 5.0 works great in mine.
2nd to 3rd gear is really nice with this piece.

dude, Hurst all the way. over 50 years of SHIFTER experience. nothing but shifters from them. the best there is, and relatively cheaper than most competing brands.

I like the Pro 5.0, personally. You're going to get all sorts of opinions; it just depends on the car and the driver. MGW, B&M, Pro 5.0, Steeda - honestly, you can't go wrong with any of them.
