I have a Backdraft Cobra with a Roush 427R (550 HP) with a 6-spped manual Tremec T-56 tranny. Great tranny! I cruise around town in 4th and 5th gears and freeway driving in 6th gear with RPM at 2000+/-. Gear 5 really helps the town driving at 45 MPH. My former Backdraft Cobra had a 5-speed Tremec. So, for my experience with the 5-speed vs the 6-speed. I find the 6-speed much more aligned with my driving conditions which is street and freeway driving--no racing, no driving in the rain or snow and no smoking the tires. GEE, if I sound old, I am. My Backdaft Cobra is just 2 years old with 1200 miles on the speedo. The car is garaged with my other toys. The car will be a great home someday to the new fortunate owner. PHIL
