Re: short shift kit

[Mike VanAmburgh <vwvr6r@fiber.net>]

I had the AWE (Air and Water Enterprises, http://www.awe-tuning.com)
short shift in a 95 GTI VR6.  It reduced the throw at least 50%.  It was
quite notchy at first, but loosened up with time.  It made the car so
much more fun to drive.  I believe he is selling them for $195 these
days.  He does it by core exchange, so you save a little money compared
to the 'other' short shifters.  If you haven't dealt with Todd before, I
can ensure you he sells/builds quality products and can be trusted.  He
is also a dealer for Garrett chips.  If you don't have one already,
order one of those too.  :-)
