VE is definitely faster because of the design of the engine.
*cough DOHC cough*
But the VG is actually a lot faster than what the most of the VE boys will tell you. Conversely, it is also a bit slower than what some of the VG will tell you. But if I can smoke a V6 Stang for most of a 1/4 in my VG 5-speed, It's all good.

Yup, I can attest to that low end. You have to love torque, as long as you know how to keep that torque steer in line.
You'll have fun smoking a lot of things off the line with that, trust me. Plus, im sure there's a couple mods you can do to the tranny, I know the VE boys do a valve body recalibration or something to their autos to make em faster, so you might want to look into that. Besides, stock on stock, auto VGs only average like a half second slower than a 5-speed.
Just have fun and happy modding.
