Default 3.23 to 3.73?

What kinda difference will a 3.23 to a 3.73 make. Will it be worth it?

I have a 96 ws6 formula, I believe is a 3.23 stock

I want 3.73 or 4.10, everyone tells me 4.10 is way to much.

As far as the 3.23 to a 3.73 what would be worth more as far as 0-60 gains,
3.73 or long tube headers?

Thanks

any info will be helpful

4.10's are too much if you are A4 and you are if your car car came with 3.23's stock. 3.73's are better for A4's. My 2 pennies...
