Default Gear ratio change on a 997 TT

I´m recieving my new 997 turbo in february and will fit a Cargraphic "powerkit nr 1", that is 544 hp. I heard that a lot of european customer upgrade the 5:th and 6:th gears to higher ratios for better top speed and fuel economy when cruising.
Anyone that tried it here?
9ff are offering kits in three different steps. Anyone that knows which ratios they are using? Have a workshop here in sweden that can do the work but want to know which parts to order.

most guys here shorten the gears, my 996GT3 the gears were too long. for the 997 GT3 the gears where made more usable here.
