pro 5.0 is what i have and it works awesome, but its weird that you dont like the steeda if thats what you have, ive had a steeda before and never had a problem, different strokes for different folks i guess. Dont go with an auto, especially if your 13sec zone, just keep doing what you doing and those ets will come. Just seat time.

Yeah ive heard good things about the pro 5.0. Ive know anyone with one thats tryin to sell pm me. I guess but it seems alot harder to be consistent with a manual. I shift at the same rpm everytime and my ets are all over the place

well I got a pro 5.0 and it definitely helps in the 2-3 shift. yeah bracket racing is tough with a 5-speed. you can do it, just seat time, and getting to know your car and what it likes and dont like. consistancy is the key to bracket racing.

2-3 is the worst. And im shiftin it spot on but i still need to improve and a shifter that is actually good will help alot.
