Default Performance Shifter.....
well i currently have a hurst shifter, which is great for track use, however since my c5 is a daily driver the hurst can be a work-out, so i was wondering if anyone can steer me in another way or should i just go back to a stock shifter

Did you try the lighter springs? It also loosens up a bit over time.

My Hurst is almost to easy to shift. I just put the stiffer springs in this week to stiffen it up a bit.
