Default Raptor shifter question?

Will removing the stock linkage shifter and adding something else without the linkage make a big difference in shifting? I'm thinking about going with the roll design shifter, but just wanted to get your opinions first...

I have the Pro Design and have to say it makes a ton of difference. Shifting is easier and smoother and its much easier to find neutral. Go for the shifter....you can thank me later...[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img]

I did't know that they offer such an animal, but if they do any time that you can get rid of linkage and go direct is a good deal!

I bought the inexpensive IMS one to try out and it has worked just fine. I don't see a reason to spend the extra $40 on the billet.
