Yea, anything is better than stock really. I've tried steeda, pro5.0, hurst, and upr. I have steeda in my car right now, somehow I still manage to miss third, it's noisy and doesn't shift too smooth. The pro5.0 in my friends car is amazing, shifts are really smooth and it's a nice shifter overall. The hurst was alright too, but felt on the steeda lines, and likewise with the upr. If I drove with them longer I could probably tell more differences. But i'd have to say go with pro5.0 you won't be disappointed.
