I have and after feeling MGW I was NOT impressed. And Ive heard of the triax handles breaking too, itll take ALOT of force, but they can break, with the kona and mgw handles youll never break those mother f'ers

No, not gonna happen, mgw is king. I can see not buying one if there was a $100 difference in price, or if you already have a decent aftermarket shifter. But, you're getting a better shifter for the same price, so imo it would be crazy not to go with the mgw.

lol i was just kidding, however i've felt the tri-ax, but not the pro-5.0. tri-ax is a very nice piece as well, and if i didn't get my mgw, i would have gotten a pro-5.0. i just don't like tri-axe's because absoulutely everyone has them around here, and since most $180 shifters perform the same (to me) it all came down to personal prefrence.

I have a buddy with the Triax on his T5 and it shifts like a dream....much faster than my Tremec shifter (not really up to par with the likes of a Triax/Pro 50 or MGW) but i really liked it. I had him make me a custom arm for mine and it's really nice. I plan on getting a Pro 5.0....reputation is enough alone for me to buy one, and the MGW hasn't earned that for me yet. That might sound like i buy what's popular but it's more like going with what's proven. I've also heard a lot about the MGW being really stiff and clunky. I'd try it myself but i don't have the cash to spend on 2 shifters.
