Ahh I see ya that makes sense. I think with a 3.46 diff top speed is around 140? If I push my car a little its a during a quick canyon sprint on a very tight road so I get up to maybe 80mph max, most is 30-60, so the 3.46 works very nicely, but some longer legs for just cruising is nice too.
As for the dual ear conversion some member posted up the link of someone doing an LS1 swap 318ti:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9QnNrhNOfxw I forgot how I found out but around 9:45 mark you see he has it done for his car and he makes 400hp, but of course I have no idea how long it would last or help. For me I will probably just do it for some extra safety.

I'm pretty sure I had the second inverted throttle body on my 318ti too.
