ordered 12 bolt with 3.42 M6, mistake??

I have an M6 camaro, dyno in sig.

I ordered a 3.42 rear 12 bolt because I have 3.42's now and they seemed fine and traction was an issue, but wondering if I should go 3.73. I want the car to run strong at the track, but still want to maintain some traction on the street as well. Will the increase in ET from 3.42 to 3.73 on my juiced car be significant enough to get it??? I also don't want to reprogram my computer if I don't have to.

it;s up to you really.. I orederd mine with 4.11's and am glad that I did. I really like the way it gets through first gear now (had a problem with laging with the stock gears)

if you do go with 3.73 3.90 4.11 4.30 whatever you should get the computer programed for the Spedo to read right..

I'd say you'll be fine. The juice will get you out of the hole. If it was N/A I'd think a 3.73 will be a minimum you should have on.

I've got 3.55s in my 12 bolt, and I wish I had 3.73s because I am an N/A car, if you use bottle it should be fine
