MGW is suppose to be the "best." And I might bet that it is. That being said . . . I have a Steeda shifter/Hurst stick combination.

I took my steeda off and went MGW which I think is the better shifter for sure. But I have always been a pro5.0 fan though. I would like to try one on my T56 just to compare. The pro5.0 on the T5 just can't be beat.

Yes, sure sounds like the clutch has seen it's best days..(unless your breaking traction ... You should smell the clutch burning, similar to hot brakes... Anyway to repair this the transmission has to be removed and clutch needs to replaced, I reccomend upgrading and resurfacing the flywheel.. If not upgrading that as well...Good Luck!

The clutch is a little less then a year old but the clutch itself is just a clutch that a shop kept stocked up on. Getting a new what is a good type to go with?

Thinking of going with a center force duel friction clutch.

There are an endless amount of choices it seems to choose from with clutches... Like previously stated it's all releted to the power you have ( or plan on having) if you are leaving it stock or just a few mild bolt ons the FRPP is a nice clutch for the money...

The one that broke was a stage 3 after 17,000 miles now have center force duel friction. All power is stock with bolt ons and dont really plan on increasing it.
