because we all value the opportunity to drive at 300kmh

I wasn't going to insult you by explaining myself, but since you insist. I was talking about making full use of the engine's power band, I said nothing about top speed (which I don't care about; 200km/h is more than enough for me). With the 4.1:1 gears I was unable to develop full boost in 1st gear, at all, ever - it would be time to change into second before the turbos got a chance to spool up! The 3.5:1 gears load up the engine much better though, which means the car is considerably faster in real world conditions. The lower highway rpm was a bonus but it was not the reason I did the swap.

I don't care much for the drags either, but if you can come up with a better way to measure straight-line performance objectively and consistently, I'd like to hear about it.
