Keep in mind that these are the same guys that said they built the 3.55 for the V-6 since thats what their research showed V-6's wanted. Well, after discussing with RHD and others I went ahead and ordered a set of 3.73 Richmond gears from Chase at Apex-Speed (awesome customer service) and am pleased to report that it does fit. So for you M6- V-6's we now have a lot of choice of gears.
As far as the drivability, I think the "up" grade is awesome. In fact, I hardly used to use the 6th gear on the freeway here as it was always lagging but now I can cruise in 6th and still feel the power. And yes, the seat of the pants increase in torque is great. I still have to get the speedo calibrated as it is approx. 10 miles off at 60 mph.
Hope this helps.
