I would like to know how it compares to the pro 5.0, when i had the pro 5.0 in my car i really like how notchy it felt, and how well it would center.
has anyone made the switch to this clutch from a pro 5.0?

I saw that, did you actually get that ****? lol..or did you order one without that emblem.
I have been debating for awhile about the MGW shifter, I currently have the Pro 5.0 with Lou's Short Stick, I like it but after all the good reviews I've read about the MGW I might just give that a try to see how good it really is compared to the Pro 5.0 since most people on here have said they like it better than the 5.0

This shifter replaced a B&M Ripper which made no noise, and I thought the B&M was a great shifter. The amount of throw you save is really minor in comparison, but the tightness of the springs I really like in the MGW. If you have either the 5.0 or the Ripper, you'll be more then happy with either of those shifters but I didn't find it to be a HUGE difference, but it was an improvment. I Figured what the hell since it was a cheap mod and easy to install.

This is my next mod, been leaning towards the Hurst for reputation and liking one that came stock in a 2000 Z28, thats until hearing alot about the MGW lately.
My big question is about the placement, I've heard quite a bit about it sitting (roughly) 4 inches farther from the driver and I don't like that idea. What's the 411 on that? I figure it's something I'm gonna have to love seeing how much I'll use it, want to do my research first
Thanks

I read somewhere else about the roughly 4" part. I guess best way to know is to fork out the money and find out for myself, if all else fails get the money back and go with the billet hurst I was already leaning towards. All the good testimonies are pretty convincing. Just thought I'd check for a little ore information on this first
