I've been running 3.3 for quite a while, and 3rd/4th gear pulls are hair raising.
I would sometimes ride out 4th when getting on the freeway... No longer... Its just too fast.
There are other options for speed other then just raw TQ&HP. I'd like to build to raise the redline to ~8k. And of course... with 400+HP @ the ground, a 3.3 rear end. (Quiafe in mine... before they got the whole bolt/ring fiasco figured out.)
Riding out 8k of 400+ HP goodness in a single gear without loosing boost, never lifting... Flat out... Like a lizard drinking. (I know an Aussie that says that... cracks me up.)
