Agree, wondering if that's the "group buy" price they mentioned or the list price?

I'm hoping for a group buy
Maybe for 60 including shipping

That would be even better, I guess we'll wait and see.

Installation looks pretty easy. Probably easier if I disconnect the catback though, right, for better access?

I have heard this to be true when installing the Blowfish bracket so it could make installing this one easier as well.

There is a big difference. Blowfish bracket fixes the shifter to the transmission so both ends of the shifter are fixed to the transmission. With Boomba, the bracket fixes the shifter to the chassis so now the shifter is used as a link between chassis and the transmission as one end of the shifter is fixed to the transmission and the other to the chassis...

leszek makes a good point. If maintaining alignment between the shift rod and transmission is important (which seems logical) then a solid connection to the body would only make alignment issues worse. The MGW and Blowfish both take the direct transmission mount approach which will optimize alignment.

The largest difficulty is the driveshaft. Nothing has to be removed, it just takes some finessing.

From what we have experienced in our extended testing through multiple vehicles, we are seeing no ill-effects in running this piece. It virtually eliminates all slop in the shifter and adds so much more positive engagement to each shift.

I absolutely hate the slop, clunk, and the feeling that the shifter never goes exactly into the gate. If this fixes that, add me to the list please.

I've been running this for a few weeks now and I have no complaints. Feel free to shoot me any questions and I will help answer them here on the thread.

A great before and after Boomba demonstrated for me when I dropped my car off for the install was the amount of flex in the shifter assembly when pushing the shifter all the way to the left. After the Boomba Shifter Assembly Bracket was installed, there was zero deflection when pushing the shifter to the left. It significantly reduces the slop in the OE shifter assembly and helps make for some clean shifting.

There is another complementary component in development that I unfortunately asked Boomba to remove from my vehicle due to excessive NVH, but man do I miss it :frusty:. I really hope Boomba is able to correct the issues and offer this product as well to us enthusiasts.
