Default what short throw shifter to get?

hello everyone just bought me a 2002 gt black on black leather with a 5 speed. just sold my pimped out scion xb with 90 hp. got the gt in myrtle beach sc. it only has 50,000 miles and it allready had the cold air intake and h-pipe and duel flowmaster (JUST AWSOME sounding) and it has the white faced gages and tinted windows. so the one thing it didnt have was a short throw shifter. so my question is Steeda triaxe or pro 5.0. everyone here loves steeda but my cousin had pro 5.0. any segestions would be appreciated.

I like MGW for a street car, Tri-Ax for a strip car.

The MGW feels short and smooth for nice daily driving, but nothing beats the Tri-Ax for feeling really solid and it's not far behind the MGW anywhere else.

But yes, if you search for this, you will find many many many discussions about it.

I personally really like the Hurst comp plus shifter. Incredibly short throws and feels pretty tight.
