Not really helpful, but I've always found that a long final drive have given the best acceleration on a turbo car with good powerband.
As an extreme example. The best 0-100km/h times were achieved with using second gear only. When power is everywhere, shifting just loses time.
I've had all the ratios, started from 3.84 then to 4.27 and now happiest at 3.54.
