gearing question

i have a 3.45 axle ratio in my car right now

but i want to get rid of the T5 for a tremec tko II that my friend wants to sell me, the thing is the tremec has a big spread between 1st and 2nd gear

T5
2.95
1.94

Tremec
3.27
1.98


im just not sure if the 1-2 spread of the tremec is goign to work for or against me. with the 1st gear of the tremec and my 3.45s the first gear is going to be like having 3.90s with a T5, that may be good because ill have a nasty first gear to get me out of the hole at the track but my 2-5 gears to be 3.45 (my car is TPI)
