is there a way

Not really. It depends on the setup.

Some sticks can be pushed very hard if you give them enough voltage.

It generally is not worth it. Rather push for higher clocks than tighter timings.

I would give the memory sticky (http://www.ocforums.com/showthread.php?t=257741) a read through :D

Unless you really want a few milliseconds shaved off your SuperPi times or a marginally higher synthetic benchmark scores then theres not much point ...

Try running @ 5-5-5-12, give memtest a few runs and maybe try changing some of those 5s to 4s although don't get your hopes up too much.

is there much of a difference running my E6600 at 3.2GHZ than 3.6GHZ

Yeh .. about 400Mhz .. You should be able to see a good performance increase at 3.6 compared to 3.2 ..
