I went with MGW before gears because it is easier to install, however, if you want performance then gears. But the short throw makes it more fun to drive. No more row boat action from 1st to 2nd gear.

Do you want to have a lil more fun driving for a little while? Get the MGW. If you want to go a lil faster for a lil while... get the 3.73's. Simple as that, depends on what you want right now. I say shifter.

+1 Even though I don't have one yet, I would go with whatever you can have fun installing yourself first. Gears can be an involved situation as far as finding a shop that can do it RIGHT, buying the install kit, maybe a Traction-Lok rebuild kit since the rear is apart anyway, not to mention gear price itself + labor costs and the fact that tyhe shop may be backed up and cant get your work done for some time....etc....
