Thanks

Thank you...
I will forward this information to my installer and give everyone an update.

Here is a thread that someone posted. It has good pictures and description of what to check. Also retain the noise isolation pad.

Keep me posted on what you find...I'll be here until 6pm.

Regarding commenting on other companies, not going to.

I spoke to Jason today at MTI and they are sending me a new short shifter to replace the existing one. They assure me that there shifter is top notch.. and like I said from the beginning it extremely precise but just way to loud.

Im highly impressed with MTI's customer service and Im looking forward to replacing the shifter.. Hopefully it all comes out right..

I'll keep everyone posted.

I agree with all who are saying mgw. I had one of their shifters on my 04 cobra and loved it. Plus, machine work looked pretty good on it too. And i'm picky.. i'm a machinist!
