The RennShift traces its roots to our 901 spring gated shifters created in the mid-1980s for personal use.  Commercial introduction came in 2003 after applying years of learned lessons to the final engineer-designed product

The 901 and 915 Porsche transmissions do not respond to the same "short-shift" modifications as other transmissions. Other shifter manufactures may attempt to apply their experience with other cars to these transmissions with undesirable effects.  The Porsche servo synchronizers are truly unique and only respond well to modifications that increase driver communication with the transmission.  Over-shortening the throw will result in less shifting resolution, causing unintentional mechanical abuse.  Our shifters mate the ideal balance of increased precision and smooth feedback that puts the driver in control of shifting rather than applying guesswork to gear changes. 

If you want the most involving and rewarding driving experience, rely on the RennShift to fulfill your desire.
