Actually Getrag ratio is longer, however shorter final drive compensate it, thats why in terms of pickup and top gear RPM, both GB only 300rpm difference.

What i mean fuel savvy is above 3rd gear .... ~ anything 1-3 gear is damn makan minyak ~
My observation based on the gear ratios, in a drag race, BLM will row through the first 2 gears quickly, therefore it will be faster. For Getrag the RPM will climb faster only 3rd gear onwards, and this is where the Achipokai becomes disadvantaged because at the same RPM, the FLX is faster and may recover ground lost in the first 2 gears. By the 4th gear the BLM pickup should be lagging behind the FLX dy.
While cruising, the Getrag may be advantageous in overtaking situations where if the BLM needs to downshift to 3rd gear to attain enough torque, the FLX only needs to downshift to 4th.
But like I said, if the IAFM and IAFM+ torque profile is different, then different story.
