I want a 2008 C6 auto with paddle shifters, but I want the rear end ratio of the 6 speed stick. Does antone know the individual gear ratios of the six speed auto in paddle mode compared to the gear ratios of the six speed stick?

Anything above a 3.15 is going to start creating problems with the A6 ratios. But IMHO changing to a 3.15 gear set in an A6 is the best and cheapest performance mod you can put on the A6.
