Default MGW shifter Installed

Well I finally got around to installing this shifter, and damn! I wish I did it earlier! lol

great packaging



"Installed" on my box



03-04 cobra ****









Stock and the MGW



In the car installed



The shifter feels amazing in the car and much shorter and more precise. I feel confident in every gear I go in, and don't have to worry about the 2-3 shift anymore. 1st feels like it is where third was with the stock shifter and feels very comfortable to me. All in all, I think it is well worth the money!

I felt the same way the first time I drove with my MGW installed - I was like "****...am I actually in first? It feels like I'm in third."

Definitely worth it to me over my old B&M Ripper.

maybe b/c the MGW is shorter than my cut pro 5.0 handle. But how did you get the cobra **** to sit far down mettign with the boot. When i tapped mine, i had maybe 1/4'' gap from the bottom of the **** to the top of the boot so i took the cobra **** out and kept my hurst one

Another believer in MGW. Good to see you made the switch man. Best shifter on the market by far. Enjoy dude.

Yeah the MGW must be shorter then, because I didnt have to do anything for it to sit like that, thats just how it was when i put it in.
