Volkswagen 6-speed Short Shifter Question
« on: September 02, 2011, 08:46:26 pm »
Hey Guys,

New here, but I'm hoping you guys can help me out. I'm looking for a short shifter for my car, and I came across this on another forum; a company called TWM Performance. I've never heard of them, but their site looks like they make nice stuff. Just wondering if I should go with these guys as the quality seems better than anything out there, and it has features no body else has...

Here's a quote from the forum:

I've got the diesel geek sigma 6 which has no counter weight and much shorter side to side and feels perfect.

Not cheap at 200 odd quid though.

Looks like they've got it on pre-order for about $250

I think I'm gonna take the plunge and do a review on it :)
