That's generally true.

Once you get well over 300 HP you no longer need as much torque multiplication and if you're driving a street car with street tires, the 3.73's can be overkill - but most people run them anyway as it's the gear ratio that seems to pull the best overall results from a Mustang V-8.

Your performance may vary.
