Then I must have a bad one, because this thing is super loud now, and I here a lot more transmission noise than usual.

Don't waste your time with anything less than the MGW. It's an AWESOME kit.

I am just concerned with all the interior noise like something is out of wack now.

My Hurst took about a month to break in, it is nice and smooth now. If I traded cars, for an 08 GT, maybe,......I would probably go with the MGW, just so I could compare them.

Quit complaining! Every after market shifter has bushings that are much firmer than the factory pieces. This is one of the good things about the shifters. Less paly and moredirect solid placement into gear. 5th will be tight with the PRO50 and reverse also. After a few weeks of driving around it loosens up and you forget it's harder to put there.

PRO50 even says that it will increase your tranny noise in the information.

I would gladly try an MGW. I didn't care for the Hurst when I tried it.

Some people like it so, find another and try it in someone else's car.

I have a Hurst and love it. I have found nothing that I don't like. Considerably less too as mentioned earlier.

Thanks Simon1 in mentioning the increase in tranny noise, I didn't receive any information on that at all in the box mine came in. So that just sealed the deal I will be returning it for sure now.

Simon is right.
See if you can try to feel the different ones out there in a show or cruise, if people are cool to let you do so.
I'm happy with the Hurst and don't have rattles, tranny noises[&:]or nothing. It's been perfect since the install, a year and a half ago.
