Short throw shifter question

I have a chance to buy a SLP short throw for 139.00 or a hurst for 289.00 which would be better one to get. Hurst reg. 350 SLP 150 ish. Is the hurst that much better to pay 150 more?

I have the SLP one and really like it. It seems like it could be the factory one with how smooth it is. It shortens throw 22% I think and doesn't rattle or buzz. I also have the knob which is really nice. I have no experience with the Hurst so can't help you there.
I know you can get the SLP shifter and knob for $256.

Hurst has a shorter throw but it's a little louder and requires a but more effort. I love it.

If your going to pay $350 I would suggest taking a look at the MGW. It replaces the whole shifter and is worth the price. The Hurst is just a shaft replacement. I had the MGW installed and love it. To me the Hurst felt to loose.
