I have a steeda, easy install and its great, really smooth crisp shifts. Do they make any other STS for our cars? I looked around prior to getting the steeda, i think ford racing had one but i was told its pretty much the steeda. Does B&M make one?

Me too.

And get a VF Rear Engine Mount - you'll love it.

I was lookng recently into getting a FR/Steeda Shifter too, however I was surprised that even with the amount of people running these, I found quite a bit of people who did not like it. I will probably end up getting one but it sounded like the naysayers had some pretty good arguements too.

Another vote for the Steeda short throw shifter.

I had it on my old SVTF and now on my 04 Mustang GT.

Also in the latest Focus Fanatic magazine they installed the Steeda short throw shifter on their project SVTF which includes the actual installation and side by side comparison between the stock one and the Steeda.

Focus Central also makes a SVT STS. I have them in stock as well as the Steeda!

Sounds like Steeda wins.
