Question for you all ?

Surely the extra gears gives it that little bit more after the 5 speed had redlined and the internals exploded all over the road.

 

But the 5 speed has less work to do (in a manner of speaking) to get to a higher speed. Unless you're talking top speed, which doesn't mean the car is "faster" in all situations, I'd say the 5 speed would have it due to the ratios.

Every manual TT is a 6 speed. You can only get 5 speed in NA's and those that went NA-TT of course.

* First Gear: 3.285:1
