The main benefit of the AFE SS to me is just that it feels more natural. I think the bend in the stock shifter to get the stick centered in the boot makes it feel "weird" for lack of a better term... for a long time after I first got the car I found myself wandering around in neutral trying to find the gear I wanted, and then eventually getting the wrong one I got used to it eventually, but I wish I'd saved myself the trouble and just gotten the shifter straight away.
