It would be a good idea to check their schedule before ya head out to be sure, but normally they have tnt on Friday nights.

Wish I could go. But have to work Saturday and that would be to late getting home Friday.

You're gonna like the MGW!

I love mine, I can confidently say that the only missed shifts I've had with the MGW were my own damn fault, unlike the stock shifter

 

[Synister500]

Install is fairly simple. MGW says you do not have to remove the DS. Umm, you don't, buy dang it makes it a ton easier getting it and the exhaust out of your way. I didn't fully remove it just dropped it out of the way and I had a ton of room to work.

 

[GrabberBlue5.0]

I highly recommend dropping the DS and OTA pipes as well, it took me and a buddy about 1 hr with that stuff out of the way

 

[Synister500]

MGW is in. Not sure if I like the position yet. Ill have to drive it to see.

 

[JLear]

Report back on how ya like the shifter.

I always loved the way the stock Gt500 shifters felt, I couldn't imagine them shifting any better.

They suck at high rpm shifting. There is no way to get into 2nd gear at a wot shift at 6k without grinding.

They all seem to have that problem and there's a million different "so called" fixes for it but pretty much none really work from what I can tell. I have heard of people changing the tranny fluid, changing the clutch lines, changing shifter, tourque limiters, and the list goes on and on. It is my understanding that there is only one cure and that's a different transmission lol.

I had the same issue with my MT-82 ... changing the K member/motor mounts, bracket, and fluid seems to have mostly resolved it. But yes, the fix is a better transmission.

Yeah I have heard alot about it, but my old 2010 and Jlear's 2011 both done fine for me at the track, it must be hit and miss on them I guess.
