I have the B&M too. It's good out of the box, but what I did was cut about an inch off it, and added a really heavy sparco shift ****(ball style). Now we're talking short positive shifts baby

some of them. the mazdaspeed replaces the stock lever only, its a 20 minute deal. the b&m replaces the entire shifter tower its a longer install
