Burger Short Shifter Kit (F30)--Feedback?

I've mentioned this in other threads, but thinking about pulling the trigger on this kit today:

http://www.burgertuning.com/short_sh...5_335_535.html

Can anyone comment on whether it's worth the $? Options for short shifters appear to be quite limited for the '17 340s. I'm getting my 340 in a few weeks--have a short shifter in my STI now and couldn't imagine not having it. In the very limited amount of time I've had with the 340 the throws felt a tad long, especially from 1st to 2nd. Any feedback or links to other options are welcome!

Berger short shifter

Just had it installed. Transformed the driving experience. Feels like a true sports car now. Installation is not easy, need a lift. I had the dealer do it. Told me they had to drop the transaxle to do the install, which the directions indicate is required. Charged about 2 hrs I think. The shifter if fantastic. Recommend it.

Thanks bud! Glad someone could provide feedback! Really surprised there's not an OEM short shifter kit for the 340/440s
