I recently ditched by Skunk2 for the Blox 490 in their purdy neo shiney ti finish.

I wouldn't have gotten it if it wasn't heavy as shit.
post up a pick of the knob and 1 of your hand by it for size comparison...And your "friendly" opinion please. I'm stuck between 3 knobs:

TWM M1 Abrams in gunmetal blue
Blox 490g in Neo whatever you call that color.
Moddication knob

Yea I'm rocking a blox neo blue as well, I like the regular style knobs better. 490g is pretty damn close to 1lbs, feels great
490g is over a pound... Around 450g is a pound.

I have the voodoo titanium. Best mod ever. Because the moddiction is similar to that, I say moddiction.

Honestly, I like the stock egg shape of my Skunk2 best, but I like the finish of burnt ti, so the Blox 490 is my favorite of the two. I would not have gotten the Blox if it wasn't heavy though.

I have the moddiction knob on my S.

Also have a TWM on another car.

That said the only advantage TWM has is that it is more height adjustable using their threaded insert.

Moddiction's knob is either all the way low or you have to install that included nut to hold it in place higher.

Don't think it's worth it for the TWM unless you really are that picky about the shift knob's exact height.

^Just and FYI my newer design shift knobs now are completely height adjustable as they are opened wider to allow 2 nuts to be adjusted on the shifter lever and hidden inside the shift knob to completely adjust the height.
