I did the 997 shifter upgrade with the Phenix bushings and a new ICT shift knob/boot that has a metal core (vs. the worn plastic/rubber core of the OEM unit).
In combination, these transformed the shift feel. There is still a bit more side to side play than I'd prefer, but overall it no longer feels like a 200,000 mile '87 Dodge Aries K-car.
Best bang for the buck $ I've spent on this bucket.
