The MGW is fully adjustable and mine sits lower than the Steeda handle in my friends GT. Dude are you like 5'1" or something?

ok so besides confuse me on whats the best and i know its based of perfence so he is my next ? what are the pros and cons of the shifters you as in you i mean everyone who posted in this thread have on your cars. For example the only positive comment was about the roush one was with the guy who own it. Theres got to be a difference other wise they would all be the same price.

MGW is the only fully adjustable short throw shifter on the market, and is supposedly the shortest shifts of any other on the market also... I love my MGW but I haven't tried the tri-ax nor any other short throw shifter...

It is the shortest throw shifter in its class. My friend bought a Steeda Shifter for his '00 GT a few weeks after I bought my MGW. Next time we saw each other I drove his car and he drove mine. Afterward he told me he liked my
MGW much better for shifting, except the handle was too far away. (I'm 6'3" and he's like 5'8") When I told him the handle was fully adjustable and he could move it to where ever he wanted, he wished he had listened to me and bought a MGW. That was part of the reason I bought thw MGW, because in 1st and 2nd the stock and Steeda shifter sit right at my knee. Before that the most commonly recommended shifter was the Steeda Tri-ax and he got caught up on the name brand because he had never heard of MGW before I told him I bought it.
