Default Good mod, under 75 bucks, sold by jegs?

i have a jegs gift certificate for 50 bucks and i'm looking for something for my car around 50-75 bucks.

i'd like to preferably get torque limiters or a k member brace, something that will make it easier to shift under load. lately i think my synchros are wearing out (2nd gear mainly) and i have to shift slowly from 1-2 to keep from grinding (never had a problem in the past).

so, SOLD BY JEGS, whats the most beneficial mod for under 75 bucks? in your opinion?

well what i mean is i know a lot of people use them on LT1's and LS1's and stuff, but it just doesn't seem like a very common mod for the s197.
