If you had factory 2.73 gears, then I would say yes. But if you have 3.23s, I don't think jumping to 3.42s would be worth the effort.

if you have an A4, go 3.73s, you'll be much happier you did

NO....unless you like to collect excess car parts. Reason: not enough to notice the change from your present ratio (3:23).
