blowfish is not needed with either barton hybrid 3 or mgw. wasting money by buying. blowfish with both, and if you have blowfish, just sell it and recoup $ and get either MGW or barton.

biggest difference, MGW is push down reverse, barton is pull up reverse collar
Thanks, i found a MGW X-Spec locally for 250, pulled the trigger :)

I consider mgw and barton equals, just comes down to that reverse preference. ive driven both, mines butter smooth, friends mgw is also butter smooth.

you'll love it, just make sure you get it adjusted and set in properly, look @ the transmission thread few days ago, someone thought was 100% correct, but simply something wasn't settled in correctly. pretty simple install,

I personally installed it via body mount, and love it. no NVH and just butter solid smooth. most tranny mount it, but there is increased NVH, friend did it and I do feel the nvh under heavy load, but it also feels kinda neat but me, I like less feeling.

Yup i saw the thread earlier today. I'll get it installed at a shop. The MGW has only transmount option i believe

MGW is the best option, but also the more expensive one. If you want to save some money and just get a bracket, look at the Full Tilt Boogie Racing bracket. Much cheaper than the Blowfish and just as effective for transmission mounting the shifter.
