Default Gears

I'm running out of things to do..

I was wondering how big of a difference 3.37 gears make. I have a daily driver and like to go on the highway on the weekends.. about 80 miles each way on the highway cruising at 80mph. I would have to wait about a year.. but I was just curious.. and am too lazy to use the search function tonight..

I think that you mean 3:73 gears. They will make some difference. The best way that I've heard to describe it is that they make the car feel somewhat lighter. They won't make you feel as if you were fired out of a cannon. The bright side is that 3:73's are very streetable, so you can still get some good gas mileage.
