Is there really much difference between a 1.26 (stock) 3rd gear and a 1.30?

Not a lot, Ed. As you can see by the shift point numbers, the 2-3 shift with the 1.31 gives a recovery rpm not quite 100 rpm higher than with the 1.26. Where that makes a difference is when shifting at 5500 or 6,000 rpm- the higher corresponding rpm in 3rd is more up the powerband, giving more acceleration. Into 4th with the 1.31 you end up just a little higher than stock, whereas with the shorter 3-4 distance with the 1.26 that would be slightly more fun, but that's not what Stan was going for.

You are right, though- it's not a ton of difference.
