Same gear ratios, too?

Your question is still too vague. Depends on how good the trannies are - the automatics and auto-sticks in high-end cars now will clutch, match revs, shift and engage in something on the order of 100 msec. Hard to beat that doing it yourself.

Also, the control of the auto tranny matters - "sportier" shift points will improve times with pedal on the floor, but more likely to downshift when you dont really need it.
