MGW is one of the best mods you can do for the car. The 2-3 shift is perfect. Under drag racing conditions, I still had a problem with 1-2 under heavy load (5500 +). Found out that this is due to the remote mounted shifter on the MT-82. It's a 1-2 lockout (3-4 for road racers).

To eliminate the 1-2 lockouts, I had the CHE K Member Brace with v8 engine torque limiters installed.
Thx very much Boss949.
I had some shift issues around town in spirited driving. And then some bad experiences at a driving event trying to downshift from 4-3 or 3-2. It was then I decided a solution was needed.
