Default 3.42s to 4.10s

I am getting my 4.10s installed on Monday, can anyone tell me how big of a difference I am in for. I'm thinking quite a bit, it should be noticeable right?

Night and day difference.... I went from 3.42 to 4.10s and I am loving it... You will notice that you barely have to push the gas to get going, and WOT is awesome...

I lost about one MPG when I went from 3.42's to 4.10's. The performance increase is well worth it.
