Write up a quick spreadsheet calculator, or grab one off the web. It should tell you what MPH range each trans gear will run through with a given tire/RPM/rear-gear.
Then you can make your decision based on your car and your needs, not those of others that might not be the same as yours.
(I put 3.42s in my 12bolt, so I could hit 150mph on the Pocono front straight, in 4th gear, not having to shift to 5th and setup for a 5->3 downshift onto the hard right-hander... ;-) Probably no one else would be interested in 3.42s :-p )
