Depends on your goal. Do you want a shorter stick or shorter throws. A short shifter changes the pivot point of the shifter, not necessarily the length of the shaft itself.

yeah thats why i said i had a hurst shifter... that is what makes the biggest difference in the throw but the shorter stick will help you out a little bit more
