I just received my MGW shifter. I haven't used it since I'm still building the car but it gets great reviews and it definitely has a high build quality.

FYI, MGW only sells direct.

Pro 5.0 is a little notchy and can transmit some noise inside the car.

Hurst are cheap and better than stock. B&M Ripper you can't remove the stick.

MGW is the best one I've ever used.

I bolted mine up to my transmission that's still sitting by itself, outside the car. Then I sat on my stool beside it and went through the gears while making "vroom vroom" noises. Seems to be working OK so far....
