I'm not so sure gears would add that much MPH. Usually steeper gears drop ET but MPH either stays equal or slows a bit.

I would think with his weight he should be trapping between 104 and 106 though.

I think with tune and Gears. In any event going from 3:08s to 3:73 should put him in the power band quick and through the traps. In theory, MPH should increase not go down.
However if he was increasing from 3:73 to 4:10's your logic would make more scense as top end would not improve much if at all.
Just my .02.
Go get that thing tuned and hit the track again.!!
Best of luck.
