Default next mod - Strat intake or Strat short shifter?

Hi,

Now that I have a complete non-resonated Milltek set-up, the time for the next mod has come. Since I don't want to spend to much more money at this point, it's down tk the Strat intake or short shifter. I know they're two totally different mods, but I'm curious to see what people would get first.

Thanks.

Default weird, im in the exact same position

posted a couple threads down asking about the neuspeed ss and the strat ss. many people feel the stock shifter is just fine and would go with the intake, but i think i will be going with the ss, just not sure which one yet...

Default Why a shifter? I've never understood that mod in THIS car...

Some cars have a terribly long throw. That is not the case at all with this car. A short shifter in some cars gives them a throw as long as ours is stock. Go with the intake. That mod will make a difference. (IMHO)

If you've dirven an S2000(which many people have), the throw in our cars is noticabely longer. But maybe our throw is good enough as it is and the S2000's gearbox is just overkill. Just wanted to see what people had to say.

Agreed the S2000 has the best gearbox I've ever driven by far. Get the SS
