James,
This was concluded in my research.top speeds for each gear at 7500rpm are 1st:71mph,2nd:98mph,3rd:129.01,4th:160mph,5th:219mph. What I love about this arrangement is that its basically a 4-speed close ratio box with an overdrive 5th gear. This should result in less shifting on the short/twisty local tracks.
Cheers!

I went for the 930 4 speed (reputed to be stronger?) and with my ZF LSD gives 60mph in 1st, 105mph in 2nd, and 212mph in 4th all at 7000rpm.
No problem with boging down just flies.
It was a Bastard to get the clutch and gearchange right though!
