I have a Pro50 on my T5. Buddy has a Pro50 as well, on his 98Z28. I really like it. I have the Triax handle on mine though, I didn't care for the little stubby that came w/ it 
TRI-AX owns joo. 
j/k, but........
With the Tremec, it's still gonna be notchy, no matter what you try..........
Hell, it's based on a racing spec transmission that was popular several years back, but it seems like some folks (not you, but some folks) still expect them to shift like a Mk VIII with an automatic.
I'll say this though............ the spring-loaded Steeda makes the 2-3 shift hard for a one-armed chimpanzee to screw up now. And, if it's any indication, my stock shifter is sitting in a box in the corner of my garage ...... where it'll be staying.

I went Pro 5.0 and its great. No more noise than stock. I prefer the shirt handle for racing. (The one that comes with it) but it is very short and does mAke you reach. For street driving the MGW? i think....Adjustable Handle is very nice...
I also sat in someones car at the track who had the steeda tri ax handle on the pro 5.0 and that was nice...it was bent back so I didnt have to reach much.
For racing the shortest handle is best IMOP even if you have to reach.. It shifts the quickest. I drove around with my console apart trying all the handles.
I had the steeda Tria ax on my 01 GT and had no complaints.. It was noisier....not sure if that was because of the different tranny/car or if it was the shifter...
I dont think you can really go wrong.....its the handle you will have to decide on and thats really personal preference.
