dude i cant explain it....its like night and day.....with the stock one i couldnt bang 2nd cause it would grind occasionally.....with this one, i banged 2nd and 2rd and they both went in smooth and DIDNT GRIND!!!! i thought it was just a fluke that it didnt grind, so i did it like 4 more times and none of the times it grinded.........im SO happy with it......

Nice score on the shifter. I like my MGW too.

BTW, I try to stay out of that 2rd gear as much as possible. It just confuses me to think about it.

I like the position of the stock shifter but it just feels too weak... and MGW didnt have that shifter out when I bought my Pro 5.0.. I think I'm going to tweak my handle so it puts it back into the stock position.
