Default how much time did you gain by switching gears?

i was wondering what kind of gain (or loss) did you experience from swapping out the stock gears for aftermarket ones. mention what stock gears you had and what aftermarket ones you went with.

Went from 2.73's to 3.42's and gained right at .5 in the quarter. The car was dead hooking with both sets of gears, but the 60' dropped from 2.28 to 1.96 after the swap.
