Default Would gears be beneficial?

Hey all, i have an A4 currently with 3.23's. I am going to be ordering a stall here real soon, 3600 2.0 or 2.1 STR. Car is street car only. Ill be running some DRs out back. Im done for bolt ons and saving for a mild turbo set up for next winter. Think swapping my 3.23's to some 3.73's would help me a lot on the street? Is it a waste, or would you suggestion a different gear. And what brand should i go with?

I say go with the 3:73's. If you go with a 3:42 you won't feel much difference from the 3:23's. 4:10's are a bit to much with the A4 they seem to work best with the M6's.

Do the 3.73s. Thats what I run and they work pretty good. I cannot floor it at a stoplight because it will just spin the tires. But a liitle bit of gas does the trick, before I floor it from a roll.

If you have traction during the launch with a stall, then yes, you will give them a good run.
