Default Short Shifters, I need opinions!

Ok, Well I finally have 200 bucks and I think the wise mod since I have all of the other standard bolt ons under 500 bucks, would be a short throw shifter. I was very interested in the MGW shifter with the orange handle. I know a few guys on here run them. What is the best shifter for my 93 GT? Ive heard both great things about the MGW and the Steeda Tri-ax, But i've heard some cons about the tri-ax. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks

i love the steeda i have. its has a good short throw and never makes any rattling noises or anything. feels great! ive heard the MGW is sweet too but i have not tried one yet. id say get the cheapest one between these two and dont even look at the pro 5.0 or hurst. ive tried both and sold both.
