The auto should have about same trap speed as manual but quicker by .2-.3 second.
So lets used a baseline of 12.9@110 mph magazine time for the 5th gen .
Manual would run a 12.6@114 and the auto 12.4@113 is my guess.

I would say this is pretty spot on. Based on power/weight and suspension/tires there shouldn't be too much deviation IMO.

That said, there is no way in hell the stock 6th Gen runs faster than 12.5 in the 1/4.

Less rotating mass is HUGE in this case. Talk about a difference maker!
