I have 2.73's...When I shift to 3rd @ about 95mph, my car falls completely out of the power band. So, at 100MPH WOT in third Vs a 3.23 WOT in third I am putting out LESS RWHP due to me being out of the powerband.
Peak RWHP will be *roughly* the same though. Until you drive a 2.73 car WOT in third at 100mph, you may not know what it is like to be WAY out of the powerband.

I'm very familiar with the 100mph bog, my car would always shift to 3rd just before the traps when I had 2.73's. It sucked. And yeah, with your trap speeds not a whole lot of near stock M6's or 3.23 cars are going to keep up.
