Not sure if you have already ordered the Wave Trac? I have on in my car (previous owner installed). It has a 3.46 ratio, up from the factory 3.32 ration with the manual transmission, as you know. The highway revs are quite high, and while fuel economy isn't my priority, it is a bit loud with the performance exhaust. Also, when it is slippery out (snow/ice), I find that I am better starting from a standstill in second gear. I do like the extra 'dig' most of the time but am not sure I would want 3.73. I'd like to have the 7-speed DCT to bring highway revs down a bit!

Just something to consider.
