I would definately go with an MGW shifter. I haven't had a Steeda, but I really love my MGW. The shifts are smooth, and short. I have heard alot of people switch from Steeda, Pro 5.0, and others to the MGW.

Typical cost for spring installation is around $150. That's not including an alignment afterwards, which usually runs around another $70 for all four wheels. These are real easy to install yourself though. I have done my car twice. Just go to an autoparts store and rent an internal spring compressor and you could have it done in a half a day. But you will definately want the internal type of spring compressor.

Hope it helps
