Just not a fan of doing 5th gear pulls when it isn't necessary. In no off track, and even then highly unlikely, situation should you be boosting in 5th. You're better off in 4th.

I agree. My tuner and most tune 4th then finish one off in 5th. Doing 5th also can be safer because the loads higher so the tunes not as aggressive. This can be better if you're in a real world up hill against wind you don't have to worry as much with knock etc.
