I Installed one of those on my car and just to inform you of my experience, the 20% reduction is barely noticeable. However, I still have the OEM shift knob. I'm sure the 20% FTB reduction is much more noticeable with a shorter shift knob. That's also the lowest priced Oem euro short shifter I've been able to find online from a reliable seller/website.

Interesting. I kinda like the height of the stock shift knob, so I was hoping that the short shifter might help. If it's barely noticeable, I might pass on it. I just read a lot of people saying it was a great mod, but I also feel like it could be placebo? One of the better shifting mods was the delay valve removal. Really feel the shift point now.
Did a little research and found this short shifter kit. It's on Ebay and same cost as Euro Short Shifter, but with more reduction?

i have the spulen one and it seem like the same thing. I had it with the stock knob and the shortest setting was very very and kinda unpleasant to get into first couple gear, nice thing is that it’s adjustable so I was able to chance the setting with ease, i now have it in the middle with a shorter heavy knob and it’s perfect.

That one looks just like the Spulen one, which I've heard great things about. It's also adjustable so you set it up to your preferences when you get it.

From your personal experience, how is the difference between the OEM golf ball shift knob and a shorter weighted shifter? I installed an OEM Audi short shifter and It just doesn't feel quite as short as I want it to. maybe a shorter weighted shift knob will give me that shorter feel that I'm looking for?

Yeah the knob height adds to the shorten feel, I have a knob for shortshifters.com and like most for our cars they are height adjustable, when I first installed all the way down the shifting was extremely short.
Second pic is about 1/4” from the lowest setting and Third/fourth pic is raised up some how I have it now.

That's awesome, and I actually really like that shift knob. I hate the shifters that don't have the gears on them.
