I am with cwsi on this, they all work well but the Berg is just twice as good. It has the best performance as well as feel. You get what you pay for these days and with all the import crap that just keeps coming in these days I will pay extra to get the quality/performance. Remember it costs a lot less to copy then it does to innovate and that is what you pay for in a Berg product (INNOVATION). Sure they are a bit more on like products but there is really only one place to buy their products and that is directly from them.

just drop the 225, it will feel like a new car, and much easier/more pleasurable to drive, even if stock.

walk around at a drag event, take a tablet with you, write down all the shifters you see. your gonna see one....a berg. there is a reason for that.

I just installed my berg locking shifter last night, I've had all the different shifters at one time or another,empi eliminator, scat, hurst, bugpack- NOTHING is even comparable- plus just the peice of mind that goes with the lock is worth the $$$
