The car currently has cats (the VSR center) but for the rebuild I will run a straight pipe all the way back to some TBD muffler. I will do a merge so it's a single pipe vs the stock dual pipe set up.
Cheers.

Everyone always goes for a short throw...personally I'm terribly fond of a shorter throw but rather a throw that is solid and allows for positive gear changes quickly. No matter how good it is no stock replacement type kit will be this good because they still use many of the stock parts which introduce looseness in the system. The DTM kit removes the carrier entirely, the only remaining wear item is the shift rod joint...and really in there the wear item is tension bushings, the little rubber spongy thing.
This is as good as it gets. Plus the lever is taller so while the throw is shorter than stock the tall lever doesn't make it feel super short which, personally, I very much dislike. I was actually thinking of asking them to make me a slightly taller shift knob for even a bit more height.
Cheers.

And frankly a few holes from drilling won't really matter, the whole car is getting painted anyway.
Cheers.
