Default 2006 Ford Mustang GT Shifter Options: Hurst Short Throw Shifter or MGW Shifter?

Ive been looking at some things for my stang and I wanted to get a short throw shifter. Can anyone recommend one? Also I saw some good reviews on the hurst short throw shifter billet plus. Let me know what you guys think.

Thanks

Oh what I am missing out on. I did drive a Supercharged GT with a Hurst and let me tell you it made the shifting very interesting. I'd say try out others shifters before you make the plunge and buy it so you know which you like.

MGW is definitely a good buy, two buddies have hurst and MGW. The MGW is just smoother and no issues with noise/grinding, while the Hurst is a bit temperamental and uses OEM parts, while the MGW is a complete package.

MGW is by far the best, its a little more pricey then others but so worth it. Buy right, buy once.
