I recommend the stock shift console out of a 997. Easy, inexpensive, precise and short enough without the balky feel of the other shift kits on the market. It's buttah.

+1 John V, the 997/987 short shifter is an excellent add-on that keeps your ride under warranty and gives it a shorter, firmer feel that I enjoy. In some regards, it feels I think something similar to my old Triumph.

Cheers and good luck with whatever you go for.

I don't think John's talking about the 997 short shift kit but is referring to the 997 standard shifter. The 997 short shift kit travel is the same or nearly the same as the 986/996 version but made slightly differently as far as I can tell.
