Would you buy this new product available for the Evo?
Hello evolutionm.net members,
I want to gauge the interest in a new product available for the Evo. I have been working with Team Voodoo over the last several months to fit a shift knob for the Evo. Now I am happy to announce that they are available exclusively through smanders Motorsports, http://www.smanders.com.
I used to have a Voodoo knob for my s2k and loved it as did everyone else who had one. Once I sold my s2k, I realized how much I missed my Voodoo. If you are not familiar with Voodoo shift knobs, just ask any Miata or S2k enthusiast about them.
I have been discussing becoming an "official" vendor with evolutionm.net. But before I enroll in the program I want to see who would be interested. If you order one or plan to, please post here.
Thank you,
smanders

But can you get one with the shift pattern engraved on the top? I think that looks much more professional.

No, I wouldn't buy it. Why? I live in Texas and it gets pretty hot here. What with the heat and the conducted heat from the tranny it gets to the point where the shift knob gets too hot to touch. I had an all aluminum knob in my Mustang and it was unbearable, so I replaced it with a gripper knob from MGW (http://www.mgwltd.com/mustang_deluxe...hift_knob.html) which is wrapped in rubber and helps keep the knob cool to the touch. Of course, that's just me.

Looks real nice, but any chance you guys might make a short style one like factory optional shift knob..? That would probably sell like hot cakes if you could make one for a decent price...the Mitsu optional short knob is $100+ dollars from the dealerships...
I happened to get one for free and love it because it makes the shifter feel shorter...

Hey the site doesn't have the picture of the polished Titanium. Also do you guys make a Pearl Titanium? And how much would be to engrave the shift pattern?
Oh and also: What is the weight differences between the titanium knob and the Aluminum?
My freinds Srt-4 has a knob like this stock, and it looks nice, and feels nice and comfortable at all times.
Thank you

I believe I can. I will call and see. I don't think that will be a problem. The engraving will add to the cost.

I just realized "Magnum-sized Voodoo knob" sounds kinda' dirty. You know what I mean
