A couple of days late, but I got my majesty twin intercooler on Sunday. Looks like they include a coupling to use as a spacer now.

Is that the pin you need to rip you centre console out for? Let me know how it goes and whether it is worth it.
If it is that pin... it's not worth taking the center console out to install unless you also do the dremel/zip tie mod mentioned on the Dieselgeek site.

I already had the center console out so installed the pin. But I didn't want to dremel anything for the zip tie mod so got little out of the pin.

I would do the shaft bushings (pictured bottom left) first, I noticed a bigger difference from that. If you're still not happy then do the superpin. But then again I didn't do any of the dremel/zip tie/business card stuff

I'm not sure I'll really be able to tell what made it feel different though. I was planning on slapping all that shit in at once and waiting until I was done to drive it. It'll be 4 mods that are supposed to stiffen up the shifter. Plus I plan on stiffening the bushing for the front to back throw.

interested in hearing your experience with this setup after a 20+ minute drive in 90+ heat
That'd be something I could do. Are there negatives that you're expecting, or just curious?

Pop the shifter in first. Drive and then do the pin.
