Unless your running a pro stock racer at the track, your better off running a 3.7 gear for the street. (my setup)

No more than 10% additional gear ratio for a streetable upgrade, unless you race and then its a whole new set of calculation criteria. Then, if your forced induction, well that's a whole new ballgame lol

I did a bunch of gear calculations when trying to decided myself & 1st spooled up too fast. You won't lose any top end in real life & in-fact probably gain top end. I also run the 3.69's & am happy with the choice. The gearing difference for an auto going from 3.32 to 3.69's (10.03% ) is more than a manual going from 3.69's to 4.08's (9.6%)
