Do you really think shorter gearing would help the quarter mile? Most trap times people post seem to be around 108/109 mph, I would think shorter gears would make it necessary to add a 3-4 shift and might slow you down more.
Great summary, your write-up makes me even more confident that I made the right decision when I spec'd the 6MT for my 2018 M240i....only 4-5 more weeks until it arrives
