I've heard from many manual guys that the MGW blows both of those out of the water.

Why?
The centering spring is far too tight which makes going into 1st, 5th and Reverse a real pain in the butt. Twisting your hand every which way to wiggle the damn shifter handle to get into 5th gear at highway speeds isn't the safest thing in the world. However, I'm going to first adjust the handle to 9 O'Clock and see if that helps, if not I will get a shift **** with more leverage than stocker (MGW composite or Hurst T-handle).

Other than the centering spring issue, the MGW is a great shifter. Every other gear is fine, and it's very quiet and strong.
