what gear ratio?

I'm going to be buying a 12 bolt this week and i have a six speed car. I had 4.10 gears in the stock 10 bolt but now i'm not an N/a car. i'm now going to be running a 150 shot with the new 12 bolt, but i wanted to know if i should change to a 3.73 gear with the nitrous with a 26/10.5 tire.I figure i might pickup about 3-5mph on the bottle.if anyone has some advice let me know

Spraying a buck-fifty and you are only going to pick up 3-5 MPH??? That seems a bit conservative to me...
I would go 3.73.
Good luck,
