once you put your shift boot on you have no idea there is even a short throw in the car until you shift it. You can even put your stock shift **** on and keep it all looking factory

Sweet guys thanks for the info. I am getting the spec stage 3 plus and I'm only going to take it to the track every once in a while. Will I really notice a big difference driving it on the street

I am running the MGW. I really like it alot and feel it is the best shifter out there. They can all keep the stock look as long as you keep the stock **** and boot.

I have the Steeda Tri-ax with the stock boot and ****. You would never know. Is the MGW a smoother shifter? Mine feels so "notchy" for a lack of better terms.
