Not again...
1) M.B. times, for example, 0-60 in their stick vs. auto SLK's (same engine) have a difference of .1 to .2 sec's apart which is pretty much the story with most of there models (stick vs. auto).
2) M.B. does not make a performance manual transmission. That means a custom fab job would have to be done.
Either way, quite time consuming and expensive to gain a tiny fraction in performance...IMO
My theory is that if it works for the SLR then it's fine for my lowly SRT
