Porsche rates C4S Tip to a max track speed of 174 mph.

Many say you will not notice the accelaration difference to 60 if that is important. The main defficiency is that all "known" auto trans have torque converter, which helps in loosing power when tranfered from the crank to rear wheels.

Many regard rolling accelaration more important then 0-60, and in that category I do not believe there is much difference as the torque converter has no effect beyond 2000 rpm.

I guess it all boils down to how do you enjoy driving?

This question will be on boards for few more years until all cars have squential manuals as standard
