In my experience, shifter mods are similar to many things for this car, like exhaust in particular. You can make changes, but they're seldom much better than fresh stock. What changes is your perception, which is also influenced by the apparant "coolness'' factor, cost, cost for labor if not DIY'd for example. So a different muffler makes the car louder, but does it sound better? Not really. Some more than others, but the exhaust sound just isn't great, nor is the feel of our getrag (esp at lower speeds and colder temps).
IMO, the best thin you can do, which took me years to arrive at, is all new stock parts, but a tighter fitting (poly or delrin) nose bushing, and I like a weighted selector rod. Everything else stock. Then inside the car, a tall knob is best for leverage, and weighted helps too so enter the M performance knob which is the dimensions of stock, but heavier.
