I've gone from stock -> 987/997 -> Ben's

9x7 is nice improvement over stock for sure. A nice reduction in throw and a little tighter feeling. I used it and was happy with it for ~5 years.

Ben's is shorter and tighter feeling yet again. The slight trade off being that the shorter you make the throw, the more effort that is required, which is true of any short shifter. It does have a really solid and precise feel that to me is definitely worth it. I sold my 9x7 unit after installing Ben's.

Ben's is the only aftermarket shifter I am aware of that uses ball bearings instead of plastic bushings.

I wouldn't buy the B&M even if it was the same price as Ben's.
