Just ordered my short throw shifter today from MGW, and I sure can't wait to get it and install it :D . Just got tired of missing third lol so hopefully it's just not me.

Sounds good. All that stuff was done when I got the car, so I missed out on the experience. Sometimes I wish the car was stock so I could have built it myself, but either way, it is a great mod that should help your times and make it much more fun to drive.

Fairly easy install, boot was just tight to get around the shifter but it's worth every penny, **** I love that thing. Shifts nice and short and I don't miss third haha.

Looks good! As said, I never had the privilege to drive one with factory shifter, but I know the MGW is nice.

Looks awesome!!If i could do it alvoer again....maybe....i would get that shifter.I like how you can adjust the handle towards the driver.Before i picked up my GT,i ordered the B&M Ripper,and i like it a lot,so it's hard to part with it. :?

I got to shift with a MGW once, and in my opinion, i think MGW stands for "My God Wow" i love them, i would take one of those over my steeda tri-ax anyday.

Ya after doing alot of research thru lots of forums, I've learned from my classic Mustang to just put the money forward and get what you want if it's reasonable. And the 200 bucks was well worth the results I got with this shifter, I am completely impressed, i would definately recommend it to anyone even tho i haven't felt anything but stock.

I go the hurst billet plus in mine, my parents got it for me last xmas. I was wanting the pro5.0, but my dad screwed up and bought the hurst, but I am glad because I like it netter then the pro 5.0. A good shifter is the best money you can spend on something that will not give you power! That MGW looks awesome by the way.

I'll have to stick with my Steeda Tri-Ax just an incredible shifter to me, tried the B&M Pro Ripper and just didn't like it, but never felt the MGW
