Im sure this question could seriously destroy my bank account.
But hey ho, here goes.
Ive found a thread posted sometime back re sequential G50 setup, which just fizzled out, crafty was a part of the thread. Has anyone come up with a cheaper alternative to a paddle shift for the average setup?
Kyle any views on this Ashley? Dave I know your planning a nice setup soon. any way to further modify it?
Can it be done, this is way beyond my knowledge levels so over to you guys, any thoughts would be appreciated.
Approx costs too. This isnt something im planning to do at the moment, just something that may turn into an option.

Hi Guys,
I contacted a company stateside, this was theyre response.
"We have paddle shifted the Porsche G50-20 transaxle (the six speed version) and have hardware that mates to the transmission. Do you know if your G50 is a G50-20? If you go to our website you can see the hardware by scrolling a little past the middle on the following webpage http://mastershift.com/new-street-manual.html .
The retail cost of the shifter unit for a manual transmission is $2400.00 USD+ the hardware for the G50-20 transmission is $499 USD. We have several different types of paddle assemblies for several different types of steering wheels and for different looks. The kit includes a set of black steel paddles for Momo or Grant type steering wheels (5 or 6 bolt). These paddles can be upgraded to bent billet paddles for $199 USD. You can also get 9 bolt paddle assemblies in brushed aluminum for $351.00 USD. If you would like, it is also possible to add a gear indicator to your order for $249 USD that shows you the gear you are in (comes in polished or black). These are all retail pricing. It’s possible that you could qualify for our distributor pricing, but we would need to discuss that further.
If you would like to see our installation manual please go to our website at www.mastershift.com and in the upper right hand corner you will see a “user login” section. Please click this and enter in user name field enter “user”, and in the password field enter “mastershift”. This will sign you into the user section which will contain the installation manuals."
