Congrats, you're gonna love it. I'm not sure how different it will be over the stock Cobra shifter though. I think they are already a lot better than the GT shifters (or is that just newer cars?) Either way, I'm sure you'll love it. I'll be ordering mine in a day or two and installing next weekend when I change my fluids (perfect time to change transmission fluid).

I'm SO close to ordering an MGW, everybody has been raving about it. Granted I just got my car a few days ago and it's my first manual transmission car, so maybe I should wait until I've mastered what I got first.

On top of that, for a beginner, you will usually take longer to shift, so a shorter shifter helps you shift faster, and not drop RPMs so much when you shift. Also, aftermarket shifters such as the Tri-Ax and MGW make it damn near impossible to miss third gear. Granted I never did that learning to drive my manual, I can certainly tell how much easier it slides into 3rd now.
