MGW

Its like flowmasters.. everyone cool has them.
Well really all the cool people have MGW's.

Just get it and you will not be dissapointed. The throws are short and the feel of the shifter is top quality!

Good post i've been wondering the same. I've never had any experience with any other than the stock one & I hear good about both mgw & pro 5.0. Has anyone tried both out?

I've used over 5 shifters between my 02 GT & Cobra. The only one I've ever liked was the MGW & it wasn't the one I could tolerate the most. It was hands down better than the other shifters I wasted money on.

Any of those 5 include the pro 5.0?

my friend never had the pro5.0 but he actually had a steeda triax and after driving my car he was satisfied with it and actualy ended up buying a MGW him self shortly after..

kinda weird he just wanted to throw around money like that.. if i had a steeda triax i think i would keep it... even if i did feel like the MGW is a better shifter.. ahh well its his money.

but i like my MGW alot.. it was one of the best mods i bought for the car.
