How much gain from switchin 3.23's out for 3.73's? M6 !Guru's only!

Could somebody give me a quarter mile time/ MPH/ 60' estimate based on my mods and my previous time w/60'.

The mods are:

- 00 vette wheels 275/40/18 instead of the stock 245/50/16 ones I used for the first run. They dramatically improved traction.

- 3.73 gears instead of stock 3.23's.

Keep in mind I have a six speed w/ 2.66 1st so my car is way undergeared to begin with. It does 55 @6400rpm in 1st gear.

To give you a reference, I ran a 13.9@104.88 w 2.3 60'. Also, I raced my buddies 00 from a roll and he only beat me by a car. He ran a best of 12.9@107 w 1.95 60' on the same day I ran my best.

What do you guys think?
