Hand helds are much better. And more flexible.

I've never heard of them either. I just Googled it and couldn't find them within a 5 second period, so my impatience overtook me, so I gave up, LOL. Link us so we can give an opinion.

get a Diablo from ebay for 20 bucks and get Diablo sport to configure it to your car for $100. should add some good torque and smoother shifts.
