This may be a trivial observation. Typically, percent change is calculated from the starting value. The difference of 0.51 between the two ratios would be divided by 3.78; yielding a 13.5% change. What really matters is the way your car performs.
I am curious if there is a change when accelerating from a stop. Faster or slower? With enough torque a light car maybe faster. Having a 3.78 with OD is an expensive way to have it both ways.
