After sitting in my closet for 3 months, the MGW finally got installed today. Took me a little while to get everything together since I had to keep running over to a buddies' to nab some tools here & there, & of course, lunch break. All in all it took around 2.5 hours on ramps, but I was taking my time. The good: Shifts are MUCH more firm & precise, all of the slop is gone, 3rd is impossible to miss, & it looks sweet. The bad?: Feels a bit notchy even set at 5 like recommended but i'm expecting, read: hoping, that it'll loosen up with some use. Really I have no complaints & it was money well spent & I would do it again in a heartbeat...but this time on a lift Crappy cell phone pix to follow.

 

3 years and 35,000 miles and my MGW works better than ever. Give it a while to break in and you'll appreciate it every time you shift. I set mine to 7 turns originally and haven't changed it.

Very nice my man.. MGW is a great STS! Congrats!

 

Every shift is smooth as butter.

 

So jealous of you...really hoping to build up the funds for one soon. I feel like I'll set the shifter at 4 and leave it there. How do you like the shift ****?

 

Love the shift ****, though it was a tad bigger than I thought it would be coming from my girls Mach 1...maybe i'll get around to taking a comparison picture of the 2 ***** side by side this afternoon. My car also came with (sorry in advance if I offend), an ugly Roush ****. Usually love Roush's stuff bu this http://0.tqn.com/d/mustangs/1/0/4/j/...ush-billet.jpg wasn't doing it for me. Everybody else thanks for the comments!

 

+1 on the Roush ****, and again, no offense. That's pretty ugly!

I have the Hurst Billet shifter. It's got the normal Hurst rattle. I'm going to try the lubricant that guys talk about for the ball joint on the top, if that doesn't work, MGW it is....I love the look and shifting of the Hurst, but I'm kinda picky and that rattle is on my last nerve, LOL
