The real question is, why is it coming in so late at 3500?
exhuast?, coatings? wrap? quick spool? housing size?current gear ration, tire size, injectors, fuel delivery........etc etc.
Any one of those could effect the set up .....it wont do any good to gear it for 130 mph, if you dont have enough injector to make the power to go 130....People are telling you a gera to run, but dont know what gear you run now, or what tire, or what tire size? Lets see,,,,,,,,here is my blindfold, let put it on first.

wrap the whole hot side and keep your gears if they're 3.42's or go to 3.23's
just wrapping the hot side will increase your spool time a decent amount

3.23's work nice on the street for a properly setup turbo LS1 6-speed car, sweet mph from a roll too 
. Since its a sts rear mount i wouldnt go too high in gear (numerically) since it would kill it even more, i'd leave the 3.42's or lower in there. Nothing more than 3.55's like mentioned above for sure.
