Default I need new axles

So with my new found horsepower and torque, and the 5 speed and a set of slicks, I'm thinking I need to upgrade the rearend in my car. Currently I have a 12 bolt with 3.73 gears and limited slip.

I do want to keep my current 12 bolt, but have no ideas what axles to go with. I also though t about changing to a 3.90 gear as I think the car will drive down the street better with just a touch mor erpm. Seems like with the TKo600 right now my car wants to run down the street right at an rpm that makes it want to buck and jump all the time, so I figured I would add just a bit more rpm and it should be great.

Any suggestions you guys can give would be much appreciated. I was also thinking I should do the c-clip eliminator thing I hear about, as I think this car could go 10's now, maybe.......

Thanks for the help
