Benitom: Cool, tell me how you like it (I hope you do!)

Thanks guys!

Took the Boxster out for a spin last night - very happy with the results. I thought it would take me a while to get acclimated but the stiffness is not a draw back to me at all. I have the same thoughts others have mentioned. Feels like a new car - when you put it in gear feels like you insert it into a slot, very precise. My wife also mentioned my shifts feel much smoother from a passenger perspective.

One thing I did notice...my driveway has a small incline when backing out into the street. When in gear reversing my car would make a significant noise, sounded like it was coming from the transmission. Sounded like a buzzing noise. After installing the new shifter the sound in gone. I didn't think too much of it before since it's a 98 and cars do creak over time.
