This is all I can say, I ordered a Rogue Engineering Short Shift Kit for my E90 335i and it is a 100 times better then oem. We feel that this old school, real world testing is the best way when modifying OEM ergonomic, sensory-based controls. Rogue Engineering only develops it's short shift kit with test vehicles in their facility, testing numerous prototypes, offering others to test it before settling on it's final design. Unfortunately, for those companies, BMW started using many different part numbers making it more difficult to just ""swap in a lever"". For other companies, making just a few ""replacement levers"" and offering them in place of those factory part numbers was an easy way of calling it a short shift kit.

So if you are tired of sloppy and unresponsive shifting, upgrade it to the Rogue Engineering Octane Short Shift Kit! Using simple designs and new technology to create a short shifter that will out perform your stock shifter in every aspect, truly putting the BMW engineers to shame. Rogue Engineering's long hours and advanced engineers paid off, creating one of the smoothest and most advanced short shift kits available. Dinan's billet short-shifter has a 20% to 25% reduction in throw with a self-lubricating bearing for the ultimate in smooth short shifter technology.Rogue Engineering has come through again with their new Octane Short Shift Kits. The short-shifter is also rubber isolated for a solid feel and vibration-free operation.
Other manufacturer's shifters employ metal components that tend to be noisier and induce a notchy feel. In addition, Dinan's short-shifters retain the nylon pivot ball and shifter bushing providing the same smooth and quiet operation as the original shifter. The Dinan short shifters are application-specific as well in order to achieve an appropriate reduction of throw providing the associated benefits without making the desired gear difficult to locate or require inordinate effort, a common complaint with other manufacturers" short-shift kits where a ''one size fits all'' approach is common. Larger BMW models with larger gearboxes require more leverage to make the gear changes which is why BMW employs different shift handle configurations for various applications. Dinan's billet short-shifter kits effectively reduce the amount of throw necessary to make gear changes providing a sportier feel.
