Y would it be bad to go with 3.73 on a 99 Bird that is an A4. I plan to go with a stall and 1.9 roller rockers but besides the gas mileage, y is it bad....

Speed limiter comes a lot sooner (unless it is removed)
Speedo is off which means more miles on car
Tach is off, car shifts sooner and does not utilize the whole rpm band.
I've had 308's, then 410's, then 342's, and now 323's
323's work the best for my situation
342's work quite well for n/a
323 gears, 26 inch tall et streets (which simulate a 308 gear to the ground) lsd, 3200 n/a and 3600 nitrous converter gave me a best of 1.630 60 ft!!!!Race car - gone but not forgotten - 1997 firebird V6
nitrous et & mph: 12.168 & 110.95 mph, n/a 13.746 & 96.38 mph
2013 Dodge Challenger SRT8: 12.125, 116.45
