Default 3.6 996 Speed in each gear please

Could someone with a 3.6 996 take a look at the acceleration graph in their owner's manual and tell me the speed in each gear at 7000 rpms? A copy of the graph would be even more useful.

Thanks in advance.

Feeling a little to under the weather to go verify but wouldn't it be identical for a 6spd manual whether it was a 3.4 or 3.6. I thought the trans and gearing were identical and that they even kept the OD of the tires nearly the same (like anyone is even still running OEM sizes )
