I woke up this morning and found a PORSCHE in my garage!

Damn Ed, who the hell let you out of your cage????
No, Ed is NOT a troll!
For those of you that don't know Ed, he is one of my best Rennlist Friends. He had a 996 and sold it for, as I call it, an "air sucker." But he still frequents the 996 Forum a lot, so we have kept in touch.
Good to see you on the 997 Forum, Ed. Are you still buying parts that don't fit on your Porsche?

It's a beautie Tim. Enjoy in good health. And don't shy away from the short shifter. I had it on my -06 C4S and always said it was the best mod I did on that car along with the Tubi. If I get a 6 sp again it will be the first thing I do to it. Have to think that those who bitch about it either didn't have it installed right or may not be entirely comfortable driving a manual to begin with. Installed right it's better than stock in every respect imo.
Thanks! If I get a short shifter, it will probably be the OEM short shifter.
Ed's comment was NOT directed at you or anyone else here. See my post above.

OUTSTANDING TIM!
It's a great feeling. Very happy to see you back in P.

Performance wise I think the OEM and the B&M kits are pretty much identical. You pay a little more for the OEM but in return it allows you to revert back to stock where the B&M is a no-turning-back mod. At least that's my understanding.

Thanks to everyone for the kind remarks!
I had my 996 for 3 years and 3 months (39 month lease) and had my Honda for exactly 3 years and 3 months (sold it 9/1/11). I plan on having this car for a much longer period of time.
Alex, I agree on the Sig pic. It will be changed shortly.
Thanks again to everyone for the kind "welcome back" messages!
