Re: New gear

3.42 is a good choice.

Re: New gear

Auto or stick? I went with 3.73 on my m6, I know most do 4.10 on the m6 (3.42 is stock for the m6 and 3.23 is stock for the A4 in most cases) and 3.73 on the autos. My reasoning behind not going 4.10 was that I read the the 4.10's were too hard on the stock diff if you get any type of traction whatsoever. Pretty happy with the 3.73's myself.

Edit: just re-read and see you are A4

If you already have a 3.23, a change to 3.42 doesnt make much sense.
