Default Ram overclocking

I need help overclocking my ram. I have two 1gb sticks of corsair xms2 pc5400(667) timing 5-5-5-15. I currently have my e6600 at 3.294(366x9). What should I set my timings and my memory fsb for the best performance. Im a noob when it comes to memory overclocking. Also do I have to have to set the voltage higher for memory?

It's usually reccomended that you lower your RAM to 533Mhz to allow for now memory interference when OCing.667 may be fine though. 5-5-5-15 should be fine.
