Go with Pspec for the 5gen.

for the pspec setup, will the stock **** and shift boot fit? because the shift rod curves down the middle and the connecting joint between the factory **** and shifter takes up about 1 inch of space. so what im worried about is that the 1 inch space will land where the shift rod curves. any answers?

Lean Racing is best, IMO. Straight drop in and doesnt require modification so i have heard and read like the pspec.

One thing keeps me from liking the Lean shifter. Its the stock shifter!!!! To hell if I'm going to pay $120+ for someone to take a stock unit, hack off the bracket and weld a new one on.

Granted with the Pspec you have to "hack" the base plate to get the lever out.

Basically, the 5gen shifter/base plate combo is just not short shifter friendly. Honda never wanted them to come apart and is why they are sold together as one piece.
