I have 33's w/stock gearing. I like LDubs analogy about the A/C.
BUT, i realized a caveat recently. It depends on exhaust! When I posted that the off the line feel was not that different than stock, I had a much more open exhaust than I do right now. Back then I had a Cherry Bomb Vortex muffler (similar to Flowmaster 40). Recently I added a SuperTrapp with 24 disks to tame it a little. It gave better tone and higher RPM torque due to back pressure increase, but low-end torque dropped a little. It bogs SLIGHTLY from a stop if throttle is aggressive. Once up to 2300ish RPM and WOT, it screams (as much as a 3.5 can...).
But, less restricted... yes, much better off the line.
