- OEM height (will mate with the M240i MP shifter, we'll see if I have the amplified whirring noise)
- 80a+ upgraded bushings
Like others have mentioned, Ronald was very responsive and provided great information. I let him know that the M2 is my only car, living in Toronto Canada, doing maybe 3-4 track days a year, and he suggested without a doubt to stick with the 80a+ bushings. I challenged a bit saying that I likely wouldn't mind the slightly increased NVH of the 80a, and whether he could provide insight on pros and cons of 80a vs 80a+. He flat out said the following:
Like some others said, $449 to start, and an added $49 for the bushing upgrade if ordered at the same time as the shifter. $16 to ship to NY.
He doesn't have any shifters with my configuration in stock, so he'll likely be shipping out end of the month. Just contemplating on whether I should do the CDV delete or not. |
That's exactly what Ron is making for me. Looking forward to it.
I plan on CDV delete while doing the swap. I've done that to every MT BMW I've owned as it makes a big difference in engagement feel and consistency.
