I was thinking 3.55 was the better choice for me. Thanks for you help!

3.55's are super with my car. 6th gear at 80mph and I'm fairly low RPM's.

Over 700 HP and STILL getting 24+ MPG on the highway!

Mine is a manual though.....

I drove an auto with Borla Attak's Axle backs....before I bought mine....the drone was so annoying I terminated the test ride afterless than 1.5 miles. I hope you have better lack of 'dronage' as it were. I have Roush on mine for what its worth but the manual doesn't drone in any annoying way, at least with the 3.55's in my manual.
