Do you mean auto mode on the auto? Or manual transmission vs auto?

If you means manual mode on the auto, the chart says faster

oh sorry i thought you meant manual trans...

mmm... DS will get you the most consistent times.... probably not a lot of difference between M and DS.... you might be able to shift at 6krpm where the top torque is but i believe it won't matter much....

+1 maybe a tenth of a second in the QM tops. I just like having full control of the shifts

Ya. I think it's more a matter of traction than the difference between M and DS

also you probably get to 60 in 2nd or 3rd so not like you do that many shifts line in a 1/4 mile for example
