Got any pictures? I'm sure there's a way around that "problem".

leaning to the left? damn glad mine doesn't do that. spend a little more $ and get the schnell or maxspeed shifter. i got mine from ebay too, but from the maxspeed retailer. saw some cheaper ones on ebay for $50 but decided to spend that extra $30-40 and get a brand i've heard of and trust

short shifter is a must pretty much on any car, but on the box the stock one is just wayy too sloppy and long.
glad u like it

i wouldn't call it a performance mod, but the sound did improve greatly.

really? always thought headers, intake, exhaust are the natural first performance mods people get. so you didn't really notice any gains in performance with it?

How difficult is it to install? I thought I saw some threads that gave me the impression it is a pain. On a scale of 1 - 5, 1 being oil change and 5 being clutch change, where does this fall?

nnope...other than the sweet sound...haven't really dynoed it, but maybe it did gain tops of 4-5hp which u cant notice. there were dyno pics of jsut the intake on the web somewhere showing 6hp gain.
and headers and exhaust wont get you much either in this car.
to get noticeable power u gotta spend some mad money on these cars.
if it was this easy to mod them and get a lot of power, people would feel cheated by porsche that they paid a lot of money for 'performance' car and the company didnt squeeze all the power out of them.

btw, look in the how to pages, on the last page, there is a how to that i did on installing my intake w all the pics, and there is a video at the end so u can hear it, it sounds wicked after 5k
