Default Short Throw Shifters

Has any one Compaired the hurst Shifter to the Pro 5.0 Short Shifter for the 05 to 08 mustang?I am just wondering, I always liked the Hurst shiffters, but the Pro has the option to use the stock handle.

Go with the MGW shifter. It is a little more expensive but well worth it. Can't say enoguh good things abut it. Totally adjustable, shortest shifts, extremely quiet, best quality and very customizable. You get you choice of shift handles and you can either use the stock **** or go with a satin dinsih handle that lets you use any of the older shift *****. I have a Hurst T bar shift **** on mine because I like the way it feels.

+1 on MGW.


For the record, DAMN I am sick of questions on shifters...

Maybe one of the mods should make the search button on the top of the page a little bigger....

There are alot of shifter posts out there, but it seems like they usually all come back to MGW. I have yet to hear about anyone who has one that doesn't like it. I can't say the same for Steeda Tri-Ax and Hurst.

Is there anywhere to purchase the MGW other than used or MGWLtd.com? I guess the best you can get it for is $295?
