Default Rear end gear question

Hi guys, I have 3.08 gears in my IRS 8.8 diff. and I would like to go with lower gears for more low end torque but wonder what's the better gear I could put,should I go 3.55 or 3.73.
Right now with the 3.08 when I'm cruising on the highway if i'm on 5th (because i have a t-5 and my engine is a stock 302) the RPM is really low and it's boring so I'd like the engine to rev a little higher and also a little more torque on take off would be fun too,what do you think.
What's the RPM difference between 3.55 and 3.73. Thanks guys !
