I've heard from numerous people that the Pro 5.0 takes the cake, hands down.

I'm still running the stocker so I couldnt tell you from first hand experience.

Im sure the B&M is a "good" shifter, as in good, i mean a improvement over the sloppy stock one. I had my pro 5.0 and chopped the stick 1.5" and it was almost impossible to miss a shift. It seemed to be knowing what you were thinking and went exactly where you wanted it to go.

5.0 hands down. I have one, all my friends have one, ect.. The 2-3 shift is my favorite shift with this shifter, no bs, to me its the easiest gear to hit.

I agree, the 2-3 shift is awesome. When I had the stock shifter I was always worried that it would go into 5th or back to 1st when I was racing at the track. The Pro 5.0 was a A+ upgrade in my book.
