I personally really like my 3.31's for a street car and my car will be boosted at some point.
I think the gears depend on what you are going to do with the car. My car is boosted with 3.73's. I was going to change them out til i took it out to the racetrack and realized they were near perfect for it. The info Steve gave you is more for drag strip use.
