Well, obviously it's "breaking in" very quickly. Maybe something just needed to loosen up a little right after the install. Or, maybe I just got used to it.

One other note -- The B&M is noticeably better isolated than the OEM shifter and vibrates much less under acceleration. There's still enough vibration there to feel the car working, but it's much less alarming. Coupled with the exhaust note from the GReddy, I've tackled the "N" and "V" parts of the NVH problem. And, for the life of me, I'm not sure what the naysayers are talking about with the "H" part of that equation.

JB -- if I see you out at a meet or drive around town in the near future, perhaps we can trade cars for an hour or so and you can test out my shifter.
