I had 3:90s in my third gen auto car..wish I would have went AT LEAST 4:10s...so I say 4:30s if you intend for a street/strip car you bet!

What size tire you running or plan on running?

4.56s' in A4 here,with 26" tires.
1/8 improvement(over 3.23s') was .35 and overall 1/4 improvement was .43.
only a .08 in the last half of the 1/4,but that 1/8 improvement makes 1st and 2nd wicked on the street.

Thought I would add my 2 cents even though I am running a T56 with 4.30 gears. They woke my car up! I went from 3.42's to the 4.30's. I would recommend it.

i race it at the track with the 373 and cut a 1:54 sixty foot and ran a 7:14 on a 100 shot, and a 7:67 on motor.I think the gear will pick me up 2 to 3 tenths
