You can use an SB for an auto tranny on the SMG in the M5. I did that a while back before I bought the M specific SB.

The M SB is not as sensitive as the regular auto SB.

I honestly forgot and it's kinda hard to compare the two cause of the two different engines and transmissions. I just know it's more sensitive on an M then an M SB would be.
