Have to? No. I ran the stock 9.85:1 gear (stock) for all motors.

I suppose you can try the other gear sets, like the 8.xx:1 on the 3.8 motor for an even higher top speed...But it's NOT a must do.

...As a matter of fact, there are some people that believe you should stay with the stock gear set because the lower ratio gears, while giving a higher top end, also put more wear and tear on the motor. YMMV.
