Default I don't recommend it...

I have it, and it was a PITA to install. Further, the difference wasn't as great as it was with the Dieselgeek short shifter -- which is cheaper, easier to install, and works better.

The **** B&amp;M gives you is a very plain looking piece of thin aluminum. It doesn't have enough class to be in a TT's cockpit. Order a **** from AutoAesthetics if you plan on going with the B&amp;M.

Default The S2K's shift is pretty short. The DG race shifter is a nice improvement over stock...

And it still feels pretty stock. With both short shifters, the TT's shift is incredibly short -- actually even shorter than the S2K's.

However, the DG piece retains the stock feel, and really is about how the TT should come out of the box.

With both, it gets pretty notchy, and the syncros can't keep up -- especially on the track.

I'd get the DG race and the new DG piece. That should be about perfect.

If I could do it that way, that's the way I would do it.

Check their site for more info.<ul><li><a href="http://www.dieselgeek.com">dieselgeek</a></li></ul>

Yes. The DG piece only changes parts under the hood.
