Those of us rebuilding your tranny. Right now in the USA, you have about 15 or so shops (not dealers) actually cracking into these boxes and fixing them. Maybe 15 :) and not just replacing them with an OEM replacement box. None of this is news. Call your favorite shop. Ask them who their favorite wholesale sales person is and give them a call. Ask them who they are selling tranny parts to and get their contact info and call them. You will find the list VERY short. My internet rumors start with real world experience (personal hands on) then before I say anything in public, I talk to other shop owners all around the USA to see what they are finding :) If more than 5 shops find EXACTLY the same things I'm seeing.... and a pattern starts to emerge... public I go. It starts with knowing who works on what :) Want tranny info from PRO's? I start here: Brian Copans Gordon Leadbetter Bobby Hart Gary Fairbanks Tom Conway B What are the pro's putting in there car? Are they racing them or daily drivers?

I am going with the 996 short shifter accessory kit from Porsche. It advertises a 37% reduction from stock in the 996. It is not cheap $400+ but neither is a new tranny. Besides I bought the Porsche because of the intense perverted German engineering....why change!

Sorry I am not trying to bring up the same old post. I am actually trying to find out about the new??? 997 short shifter not the stock 997 shifter. It is about $400 from Sunset Porsche. They claimed to have two different types for the 997 that will fit into the 996. One is about $200 the other is $400. Anyone know the difference? How does the "997 Short Shifter" compare to the B&M? Thanks

Anyone know the differences between the two as far as specs? Do they have the same throw? Same install? Reliability? The 997 shifter is about twice as much money. I am just trying to justify the cost.

I thought you had to use the GT2 harness? Will another part number work? Are there other options that are less expensive?

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I just want to disable the wing from going up automatically at 74MPH. I do not want to loose the fan plus I can't open the lid from inside the car if I just pull the fuse. Is there a wire I can cut? I am replacing the unit with a fixed wing and new harness next spring. Perhaps the power wire to the hydraulic pump? Thanks
