Im looking at getting a short shifter and have narrowed to three choices. Roush, Steeda, or Stillen. Which one is better in terms of performance and ease of use. PLease give me input thanks!! Stillen exhausts any good?

 

I had the Steeda and changed it to the MGW!!!! Best shifter on the market hands down IMO. I like the hurst and its notchiness but prefer the smoothness and never missing third with the MGW! Great shifter but pricier than almost all of them! You don't need the stops if you decide to go with the MGW. The Steeda was great but had to switch as I liked the stock feel but hated the throw on the factory shifter. Not sure about the exhaust but all the companies mentioned have their benefits and are reputable..... welcome to the forum and hope it helped

I went with MGW. Most here that have had one will tell you its worth the price differential.
Is the Steeda a Hurst? Im almost sure the Roush is. Not sure about Stillen.

Exhaust isvery subjective. I would research for a while before I decided on Stillen.
For the most part exhaust gains sound and not much else (The factory exhaust is very good).
The three following are the most popular.
SLP Loudmouth- Loudest
FRPP GT / Borla Stinger / Roush Offroad (All the same exhaust) - Moderate
FRPP GTA / Superior (Same as Shelby GT) - Slightly deeper and louder than stock

 

Might want to try the Saleen short shift adapter. I have had people who have installed the Roush try mine and thought I had installed the Roush as well. They are always very surprised to learn it is a $50.00 Saleen Short Shift Adapter. You can check out Taco Bill's install of this piece as well. Good Luck.

 

I got the Roush and i like it.. Get the whole thing if you go this route.. Shifter, arm, and retro ball.. I'v not got to play with any of the other ones.. But i am happy with it.. let the force be with you..

 

i have the new billet hurst and like it and i also tried steeda and thats nice to but out of the 3 you named i get roush or steeda

 

i got the pro 5.0, smooth shifting and goes right into 3rd. i have only tried the pro 5.0 and hurst, but the word on the best are MGW, Pro 5.0, Steeda tri Ax.

 

I like my Hurst alot. Nice notchy/positive feel, very short throws,looks great,inexpensive. Try out a Shelby GT if you get a chance

 

Save your cash and get an MGW. Don't mess around with rest, get the best! FTW

 

MGW MGW MGW!
