the BG Syncro Shift was worth the hype. combined with an mgw shifter, a new clutch, and a weighted knob, it completely knocked out all my shifting woes, even at 43k miles with the stock MT82 trans. Had to put a lot of money into it, but i feel like the car is now what i wanted it to be all along.
Same. I’ve only done the Roush AB and love the sound and am glad I didn’t do more because it would have killed the convertible experience by being too obnoxious.

Reviving an old thread.....any update after changing fluid? I've got the 1-2 nibble as well that is engine-temperature-independent. I shift slowly and pause in neutral in between shifts to mitigate. Not cool, makes me feel like I always drive slow off the line...
Thanks, I'm super excited and hoping to find a high quality shop to do the install. No other vehicle I've owned has brought the level of joy that this car has. The stock shifter is the only downside..
Hi - I have no mechanical ability and am receiving the MGW shifter in a couple weeks (processing time, since I ordered and they're backlogged). Looking for recommendations from someone who has positive things to say* about having gotten it installed it at a shop. I'm looking for a shop within...
