  • I installed my MGW Race Spec short throw shifter on my 2013 Ford Mustang GT about three months ago. I've been really enjoying it, mainly due to the transmission mounted design and weighted shift knob I installed with it. The short shifter removed the common high RPM lockout issues and made the 5.0 much more comfortable to drive. Enjoy!
    What's on the car:
    RTR 19x9.5 square wheels + Michelin PS4S 275/35/19 square tires
    MGW Race Spec short throw shifter
    Koni Adjustable struts & shocks + Steeda Ultra-lite lowering springs
    Maximum Motorsports caster/camber plates
    J&M lower control arms & LCA relocation brackets + upper control arm
    BMR adjustable panhard bar
    Corsa Sport mufflers + Resonator delete + Pypes high flow cats
    JLT CAI + Bama tune
    Thanks for watching!

    MGW makes awesome shifters. I have one installed on my T56 magnum XL; very notchy as you described, but you know you're in gear and there's no slop.

      @MassimoO  3 года назад +1

      I’ve heard a lot of things regarding it. Stock clutch, shifter, transmission fluid, there’s a lot of ways to help it, and an aftermarket MGW shifter is one of those ways!

    I drive a 2013 5.0, other than my CAI and steel braided clutch line its basically stock. Has anyone experienced when doing a 100% WOT pull, delayed power delivery in 3rd and 5th? All the "high RPM lockouts" are described as not being able to get into gear but I can get into the gear just fine. With the clutch out and the throttle all the way down immediatly after a shift the car doesnt start to pull for about 1-1 1/2 seconds. The return of power isn't hard either. Fast but gradual. I can't seem to find someone with the same problem. Car has 51k miles.

    • @MassimoO
      @MassimoO  2 года назад +1

      I've never really heard of that issue. I'd suggest doing some forum research on the S197 or even S550 5.0 pages to see if anyone has that same issue. That's a weird one!

    So what about the xpec regular profile? Did u get any feedback on that at all besides having a xpec low profile which is the max for short throws? Let me know man

    • @MassimoO
      @MassimoO  3 года назад

      I sat in a buddy’s ‘13 5.0 that had an MGW 1st Gen short shifter with the regular shift knob height, and the regular height is a lot taller than the low profile height. I like shift knobs closer to the center console, so mine was a perfect fit. As to the MGW X-spec regular profile shifter, I don’t know anyone with that model so can’t help much there unfortunately.

    Does this shifter come with a shifter bracket? Or did you keep the stock bracket

      Comes with its own entrapment, didn’t reuse any stock shifter parts.

    How can people say this is a great shifter and say its very notchy in the same sentence? I had one installed in my Boss 302, and it was the worst mod I ever did. I am seriously thinking about removing it from the car.

      You should probably remove it if you hate it that much. Life is about happiness, Nick.

    The shifter has nothing to do with lock out...clutch assembly/stock clutch for a stock S197 is the issue. 6.500 RPM to 7k lol bro get your N/A game up SMH...

    • @MassimoO
      @MassimoO  3 года назад +1

      It’s no secret that replacing the stock shifter will improve the lockout issue.
