What are the gear ratio differences between an M12 and M6, for each gear?
I was under the impression that only 1st and 2nd were different as far as the actual gears are concerned, is this true? Or is every gear different?
Thanks :confused:

Hi I am new to the forum and I was wondering what the m12 is, but I know that the MN6 is the stick in the c5. Thanks.

Quake don't knock your A4 too bad, I have an M6. You can modify your A4 to be very fast and not have to worry about shifting. There is a guy on this forum who has the fastest times I have seen on a C5 and he debated going to an A4 for quicker shifts and launches. So although your initial Horsepower maybe lower there are some benefits if you really start to get into modifying your vehicle. :cheers:

Thanks Shinobi 
. I still have 2 years on my warranty and do not want to void it yet since I have recently encountered problems that the dealer has not been able to fix yet. I might consider modifying my car anyways, but the whole thing about knocking the a4 isn't performance oriented, it's mainly I do not feel lke I am driving the car I feel like the car is driving me. :D I thought I wouldn't mind the a4, but I miss shifting and downshifting, just fun ya know :lol: Later.
