I'm doing a A4 to M6 swap and I want to know what type of shifter you'd recommend for a T56. I can get a brand new stocker for $250 but aftermarket ones are cheaper. Trying to decide between B&M Ripper shifter for $200, or a Pro 5.0 for $180. Any thoughts??

Pro 5.0 works well, what I use & never miss a shift. Everyone that has the MGW loves it but its in the $230 range.

I wouldn't buy a B and M I had one and its to tall and every other short throw I've used has had a shorter throw. I've never used a Pro. 5.0 my self but I hear good things. I think they look cool with a Lou's short stick. If not a Pro 5.0 I'd go MGW which is what I have. Very short throws but since they're so short it doesn't really feel like your banging cogs anymore lol its in before you can get a good wham on it. Its a very good shifter IMO.

I had a Pro 5.0 for a long time it was a good shifter, but I think the Hurst Billet Plus I have now is better than the Pro 5.0.

hands down MGW I had the best hurst shifter made for our cars and it might as well of been stock compared to the MGW.

the MGW is VERY short CRISP and clean shifts, it has the hardest spring of all of them to help prevent the dreaded 3rd to 2nd downshift. infact it was so tight compared to the billet plus that i had trouble with the shifting for the first week

I have the B&M and love it, but tonight im going to cut about 2" off the top and rethread it. The throw is a lot shorter than the stock ones.

If you have ever shifted an MGW, you won't use anything else. Fell in love with it on my Cobra. I replaced a Pro 5.0 with the MGW and never looked back. Pro 5.0 is very very good. The MGW is that much better.

MGW all the way! Such a badass shifter; only thing holding it back is the tranny rebuilt I need to get sooner or later...

cant go wrong with it, you will get agravated the first week or so and miss shifts, atleast i did anyways cause the billet plus was in a diff locations and was way longer.
