The automatic was designed by porsche, has 15 planetary gears (why they call it the 15AT) and drops a full 1.8 seconds off the quarter mile.
6MT is for kids.

Auto transmission has a built-in turbo on the gears and you can install a popcharger directly onto the final drive.

Now for a bit of serious stuff.
In 06 models, the 6MT have the rev-up 300hp engine and the 5AT has the 287hp one.
I recommand doing a search on the rev-up engine before asking. 'Cuz these guys will have a terrible fit if you start a new topic on that...

with a manual, you can install a bov onto the transfer case to minimize drive train loss. re-gearing to 15.4 will help your low end torque, but your top speed will be 25 mph.
