Default Question on 5.0 pro shifter

i have an 04 mustang gt and iwas thinking of getting a short shifter but i dont know which one to go with, i looked up the 5.0 proshifter and i was woundering how good it really was, or should i just go with the MGW shifter?

why is that? is there a certain reason why? i don't mean to sound so upfront i just dont want to waste my money, but i do like the fact of how small the 5.0 is, do you know if the mgw handleis short like that too.

Believe me you won`t be wasteing your money. I know people that have had the pro shifter and really didn`t like it. Anyway, the MGW shifts the best of all imo. I think they are all pretty good but the best thing about the MGW is you can rotate the handle 180 degress to get it in the perfect spot for your comfort. That right there will make a big difference.

Click on their website here. http://www.mgwltd.com/mustang_1990-2004.shtml
You will see 2 allen screws on the side of the shifter handle. You loosen those and turn the handle to the position you want it and tighten the screws back down.

MGW shipped for $187
As for the midpipe, they are pretty much the same.

MGW def over the pro 50. No comparrison imo. The rotational feature of the MGW alone makes it better than the competitors.
