here are my existing gear ratios for comparison
DQY
1st 3.778
2nd 2.118
3rd 1.360
4th 0.971
5th 0.756
Final drive (all gears) 3.389

Installed in all US market TDI Beetle, Golf/Jetta IV
So, current speed in gear chart looks like

5500 31.92 56.94 88.68 124.21 159.53
5000 29.02 51.77 80.62 112.92 145.03
4500 26.12 46.59 72.56 101.63 130.53
4000 23.22 41.41 64.50 90.33 116.02
3500 20.32 36.24 56.43 79.04 101.52
3000 17.41 31.06 48.37 67.75 87.02
2500 14.51 25.88 40.31 56.46 72.52
2000 11.61 20.71 32.25 45.17 58.01
1500 8.71 15.53 24.19 33.88 43.51
1000 5.80 10.35 16.12 22.58 29.01

EDIT: so, basically 5th is 5th (just a hair taller) and 6th is a new, extra gear above 5th
