Ditto to all of what Shadrach74 said. I love my short shift kit. It's the cheap ebay one too.

Do yourself a favor though, replace the main shift linkage piece because the Porsche ones are crap and usually break or will break when you remove the old shifter. There are metal replacement ones that will never break on you and that's what you want to go in with your new short shift kit.

Thanks for the replies. Do I need to get 2 of the shift cable ends? It's not real clear on Vertex's website.

No, you can use the existing cables, though you might want to get one to replace the cable end that attaches directly to the shifter (as opposed to the one that attaches to the plastic armature); it might make it even more precise...
