The .82 will allow you to drive fine on the highway, you don't have to worry about the engine being off cam at lower speeds in 5th, it still usable at the track and in town you can throw it into 5th and enjoy a conversation. The few times I wished I had the taller gear was on long road trips (over 300 miles), but then again, those were the far and few between times the car actually went out. The majority of the time these cars go for short hops, and a usable 5th for fun makes more sense IMO.
