Tremec's a manufacturer. T5 is a design of gearbox.
In the AU's they're made by Borg Warner with the exception of the Tremec TR3650 found exclusively in the T3's. Tremec do make a T5 but why you'd bother pulling out the BW to replace it with the Tremec version I don't know - not much benefit if any.

Craig is right, only earlier T5's were made by BW.
