need a shifter. recommendations
I have never used a MGW but I always liked the the stock hurst with a short stick on it. I had the Pro 5.0 for a while and went back to the stock hurst.
I'm sure the MGw is a superior piece, just food for though.

+1 on the MGW. Just put it in the car about two weeks ago. Best decision I have made. I had the stock shifter and the difference in night/day. The shifts are more precise and positive. The feel of it is also very nice.

MGW here excellent piece...with this shifter, the shift *** matters so choose wisely...and the actual stick is short making it far from the wheel. if competition is in your future, you may want a longer one...otherwise, its fine the way it is.
I've driven cars with the stock shifter and aftermarket shifters. I've never had a problem missing or getting into a gear because of the shifter. What clutch do you have? Are you sure you aren't just getting locked out of gear sometimes because of the stock clutch?
My brother has the stock hydraulics with a stock shifter with a Monster Stage two clutch and never misses a shift now. Before with the stock clutch he was always missing/locked out of 3rd.

I'm currently using a pro 5.0. Never tried a MGW but the pro 5.0 is a pretty nice piece.

Has anyone tried/had the pro 5.0 and then tried the MGW? The pro 5.0 with a short stick was day and night for me compared with the stock. But now I'm reading about the MGW and I'm curious to know if its much better.
