If its the Marks Adapter gearset you will notice a significant increase in noise from the transfer case over standard. Not an issue with the comp guys, but can get a bit annoying if a touring rig.

I have 85% rock crawler reduction gears, no whining. The speedo dosen't even move above zero until in third gear. That's on 35" tyres and 4.1 diffs.

from memory with my 85% gears,
3rd low equals 1st high but the GU first gear is a bit higher than GQ first gear
