I havent tried the B&M shifter, but i have the twm one and its great...it takes a while to get used to as it tightens everything right up...but once u get used to it the throws are so much shorter and it makes the car so much more fun to drive

B&M is better because it's machined out of one piece and comes with a new pivot instead of the two plastic bits from the stock shifter. But it is like 2x's as expensive!
I think the B&M might not be as "short" in height as the TWM which woulda actually be a plus for me, but lots of people like it short.
Plus TWM has been nice to our club and they're Canadian .. even if they're from Quebec http://msg.toprotege.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif

thanks for all the input... but still hard up to decide on which one to get... i've heard good stuff about b&m but nothing about the twm... i guess i have to go out and do more research...

with over around 30 members on TOProtege.com and 10 in Vancouver using the TWM Shifter....not one bad thing ever said. I think there is some testimonial in that.

Plus check my review on the Toprotege.com review section:

Jason, looks like you need to send me those images to post up on the web server... I can't see them off Yahoo anymore.

b&m is the best mod we've made - and we have made $10,000 worth so far.
