Default top speed nb with diff diffs?

While I really enjoy the accelleration of my 4.30 torsen in the '99, I am really getting tired of buzzing 5k+ at 100 mph in 5th.

I know this has been answered before, but how much would a 4.10, 3.9, 3.63 change my top speed?

If you want to use your own brain a bit is quite simple.

At a certain same speed and all else being equal
4.30 4300 rpm
4.10 4100 rpm
3.90 3900 rpm
3.636 3636rpm

See the pattern and logic?
