I noticed a difference with mine. I went from a 3:42 to the 3:73. When I switched mine I was still daily driving it or I would have gone with the 4:10. I have no idea on the track improvement.

You should notice alittle difference coming from 3.23s. I went from 2.73s to 3.73s and it was very noticable, no more 3rd gear lag. It'll "feel" faster but doesn't really improve track times from all of my research. (maybe a tenth or so). The sotp is what your buying.

I went from 3.23s to 4.10s (Richmond) and dropped ~.5 sec in the 1/4 mile. But made it harder to hook up off the line. Suspension mods helped afterwards. I thought it was a good improvement.

I love my 3.73 . I went from 3.23 and the car pulls just as hard in 3 as 2. I have an Auto and would never change back.
