I emailed them this morning. I ordered mine 2 weeks ago. They did tell me they were on backorder at the time. Anyway, here is what they said:

I think I am going to call tomorrow and cancel my order. I deploy in less than 2 weeks I can't wait a month for a damn shifter. They haven't charged me for it yet so I guess it will be easy to cancel.

They don't charge until they send it. It should be sending this Friday according to them.

Yeah I won't have time for it. Sucks since I ordered it 2 weeks ago. Oh well, I didn't want it that bad anyways.

Yeah, I ordered mine a little more than 2 weeks ago I believe.

Did they not tell you they were on backorder?

No they told me that it might be out at the end of the week, I assumed that meant the week I ordered it which would have been fine.

Just ordered mine today to replace my Pro 5.0. I'm going to keep the 5.0 until I confirm that this is better. They said it would ship out by the end of next week.

The 5.0 is a long shift, IMO, no shorter than stock, and does not center and sucks to drive around town. Never missed a powershift with it, though.

Then why did you order a part??

I also dont get why you need it before deployment when the car will most likely sit dormant for a while.

Sucks you wont be able to get it and try one of the best shifters made for our cars.

Because I wasn't aware at the time of the backorder, and they didn't specifically tell me it was backordered. I ordered it on a tuesday and they mentioned something about the end of the week, so that was cool.

My reason is I am upgrading everything right now that will go towards my future build, so I can get a better estimate of what I need to spend on my motor. Plus I want to enjoy my car as much as possible before I go, and I hate my stock shifter with a passion. I plan to have around 25k set aside (been saving for a while at home here too) for my new build.
