What if I change the ratio on my rear end?

I've done searches to try to find out if my SS has 3.23, 3.43, or 3.9 gear ratio. Not likely that it's a 3.9 but that's what I think I want. Can anyone confirm what rear end was stock? Anyone change to a 3.9? If so, did you notice a significant change? I have a M6 transmission.

The L99 cars come stock with 3:27's and the M6's have 3:45's. The 1LE has 3:91's.

Can't speak about the A6, but 3.91's in an M6 really wakes the car up. Whole different animal.

Sorry, you are right. I did a search in the main forum and nothing came up. I never thought of looking in the transmission thread.
