There is one (probably 30 year old, actually) 5 valve Mira-186-5U-BBb at the University of Memphis. Curiously, it indeed has focus and attack problems (as the school's old 4V 186's do NOT), but I seriously doubt that those problems are in the least related to the fact that one more rotor is piped into the instrument next to the other four.

As I aftermarket added a #5 to two different Mira 184-CC's, I (the reasonably sensitive player that I fancy myself ;^) perceived no differences in playing characteristics after I stuck the 5th rotors on those instruments.
