The distance between the pivot ball and small bottom **** that goes into tranny selector rod is greater than a stock unit. Less leverage = shorter throw. I love mine. Works great and half the price of a Rx7 unit!

When installed, the shifter is actually taller than the stock S5 shifter, just a sorter throw. I cut mine down, so now it's at stock hight.
I have big hands too, but I have no problem shifting.
