ive done it both ways i and say take the tranny out first then pull the motor.
you have to get under the car to unbolt the tranny crossmember and etc. 4 more bolts and you can pull the tranny from the bellhousing. that way you dont to tilt the engine real high to get it out with the trans attached. and not having a load leveler will make it super hard to tilt it.

stock t5 is 90-100 lbs. a plain jack would do it if the cars on stands.
like i said before, i pulled the whold thing out with a rented crane and a buddy helping guide/lift up on the tranny. seemed a hell of a lot easier than pulling them seperate, but its up to you on how much time you wanna spend on your back under the car, it can be done both ways.
