Question on Boxster Short Shift Kit

As per Homeboy981 comments I have installed the short shifter but the shift is very stiff what or how do I adjust the cables to get the sweet spot and smooth out the shifts which were perfect before my mod.

As I stated above with the new short shifter in place, shifting will be a bit stiffer but it shouldn't be terribly stiff to the point of where it's uncomfortable to shift. There is a small alignment tool that you can use to align the shift cables it it can be seen in one of the photos of this project. Putting in place and then adjust the cables together and it should adjust them to the proper length. If your car is missing this too that you can buy one too, although I do not have the part number handy off the top of my head.

unfortunately, the alignment tool mentioned by Wayne, will not fit the after market SSK.
you will have to drive your car with the console off for couple of days, and play with the setting to get it right.
also make sure you did not over tighten the bushings.
