Dude, your best bet is to just leave in OD. You need to find the right MPH that will get you the right computer controlled down shift you want if you are going to race, I know with my 3:23 geared car on the highway I need to keep it under 70mph to get a wicked 4th to 2nd down shift. If you are going to manually shift watch the RPM's not MPH....and you better shift 600-700 RPM before red line. Leave it in OD and go buy a 3200+ stall to cure your problems

If you don't want to change stock, try a performance air filter.
