Default Shifter Options???

A short throw is definately on the list for one of me next mods. I know this forum is littered with owners of Pro 5.0's and MGW's, but has anyone had any experience with the UPR shifters?

Not a bad shift and it's a step up from stock but it's no tri-ax or 5.0

Anything is going to be a step up from the stock piece. You will get a lot of responses for MGW, Steeda Tri-Ax and the Pro 5.0.

I know, I've researched all 3 of those options, but I saw the UPR shifters at Atco over the weekend, and unfortunately can't seem to find much on them other than what their rep told me and what's on their website. It seems like no one on here really owns one.

Either one of two things. The UPR's aren't worth the money compared to other shifters, or so many people on here own and recommend MGW's, Pro 5.0's, and Steeda's that no one's giving much else a thought. I just don't wanna spend $150 on a UPR to find I should have spent the extra $50 for an MGW.

I'd go with the Steeda. 2 of my close friends have mustangs and the 3 of us all use Steeda. Its the only thing we agree on as far as brand names for aftermarket parts.
