I would say there is a performance difference.
Last year, I raced against a friend in his HD at the track.
Both our trucks were bone stock except that he had fitted an FTVB.
When we left the lights at exactly the same time, we were dead nuts level till the 1-2 shift where he would immediately jump by a fender length.
At the 2-3 shift (this was at a 1/4 mile track) he jumped ahead by the same again and at the finish, I was level with his back door.
He ran a 14.7 to my 14.9
To me, his FTVB was worth 2/10 because of the quicker shifting.
