I love mine...
Found that the rubber seal that mounts to the floor of the car was torn, had to hunt one down online...

Also, the rubber boot on the shifter steslf was torn, got a replacement one from Hurst, since Pro50 doesn't come with one...

It feels great and shifts fine.

we had the ripper on the t-56 last year and it was great. i bought the pro 5.0 as i swithced trannys and the ripper went with the other trans. the pro 5.0 looks and feels better built, but they both operate the same.

I have a Pro 5.0 stuffed in the top of my TKO600 and I love it as well. As was stated above, if you miss a gear its your own dang fault!

Does the pro 5.0 have the same rediculous metric thread pattern that the stock shifter has, or can you get other conventional shifter handles with it?

Oh, and I wanted to get one, but i can't find any place reasonably priced. Where's the cheapest place to get a Pro 5.0 for a T5?
