The B&M is alot shorter then stock and shifts really smooth, I had one on my car for over a year. only 2 disadvantages are 1. no 2-3 shift thing that makes it impossible to miss 2. B&M's are 1 piece so you cant put a shorter stick on without cutting it and rethreading it. As with the pro 50 you just take 2 bolts out and put the Short stick in. But it all comes down to a matter of personal preference which one you like better
