MGW shift ****
I have heard a lot of talk about the MGW shift ****. What does this shift **** look like? Does it work with the stock shifter. What are the pro's and con's about this shift ****?
Thanks,
:confused:

Fits the stock shifter and the ripper for sure, and I think almost all the other shifters as well.
I love my MGW ****, makes a huge difference on the stock shifter, I used to miss the 2-3 shift quite a bit after going to the MGW I never missed it again.

I have the pistol grip. It's a quality piece...a little small for my big hands, but a very nice shift ****. :thumbs:

I have the Gripper. It is well made and the grey matches the Z06 emblem and sets of the interior perfectly. Combined with the Hurst shifter its great. Check out the MGW website.

Mine's in shipment. I have a Kirban shift **** which I like but figured I'd give the MGW Pistol Grip a try too. I'll post my SOTP impressions when I get mine.

Re: MGW shift **** (Maineiac)
:iagree: I like my pistol grip as well but was hoping it would be larger, I wonder if the gripper is better for a larger hand---BTW they have pictures on their website, I thought I still had the address but don't.

Just ordered the t-handle if you call they have them the tripple chrome is not back from the plating guy yet but available in their grey and silver anodized, you can see a picture of what they look like by going to the mustang section and looking at their t-handle same basic design, looks like a good grip situation $50, will have one in a couple of days and will post---bill
