Does anyone have the New MGW S197 Shifter yet?

[WPGFORDGUY]

I've tried em all,

Hurst, Pro 5.0, triax and Stock saleen.

I've never had an MGW but iirc people seem to think that they are the best.

As the title says... does anyone have one? I'm going to order one and wanted a few opinions 1st.

its mgw...im guessing you'll be happy with it. ever since i drove in my brothers 04 mach1 with a mgw ive been wanting a mgw short throw for my 07

I've got one and love it. Never tried anything other than the stock one, so I can't compare the others. I wasn't disappointed.

i love my hurst shifter...someone i know had the MGW and loved it also i shifted both...and i bought the hurst....if your just daily driving the Hurst is much better the MGW is a little more agressive....and more expensive. hurst gets the job done and i enjoy it

I had a MGW on my 01 Cobra, my 05GT came with a Steeda Tri-Ax, I like it, I might change it down the road if I find something smoother.

in my GT i have only had the stock and now the MGW. i also had a MGW in my 01 cobra. i cant say much for the other brands, but im going to stick with MGW and most people will say the same. i havent really heard of people switching from MGW to another shifter, but many have gone from other aftermarket shifters to MGW.

I have one. Great shifters for sure! If you buy it, you will not be disappointed.

I've tried the Steeda Tri-Ax, the Hurst, and finally the MGW. The MGW is without a doubt the best of the bunch. Easily worth it's weight in gold!!! MGW = FTW!!!

Hurst owner chiming in, my shifter seems very notchy and I've had it for about a year and a half. Has anyone else experienced this? I've been contemplating getting another shifter.

 

[StStang0702]

yeah, mine is notchy as well, definitly know ur going into gear.....kind of hinders quick shifts,

 

[TCSoff]

.....kind of hinders quick shifts,

That's exactly why I've been thinking about getting another shifter.

 

[WPGFORDGUY]

I missed 3rd on more than one occasion with the hurst, I had two of them and actually broke one of them.

 

[StStang0702]

yeah, i was racing my buddy the other day, and i missed third, the hurst is beginning to let me down :0(, i liked it at first but its beginning to loose its good rating with me

 

[TCSoff]

Did anybody see the video of the guy going through the gears on a "dry run" with the MGW? It looked so effortless, the guy was shifting with the tip of his fingers!

I've never been able to powershift my 05+ cars to third, now I can.
