Default HELP! D15b7 mini me tranny questions!

Im thinkink about putting a d15b7 mini me swap into my hatch just for a little more pep i guess, and the fact the stock d15b8 is about to go.

My question is: will i need another transmission for the d15b7, i no the b8 tranny will prob bolt right up, but will it work good in the long run for the b7/y8 mini me swap. This is prob a dumb question but ive looked around and havent found anything really to answer my question thats why im here lol. ive seen ppl say they used a ex/si tranny but if i dont need have one then why waste the money?? this car is just a dd and is'nt beat on so just something that will have a lil more pep and be reliable is all im looking to gain from this, Thanks alot any post will be greatly appreciated!!

Gearing is extremely tall on the CX/VX. You most likely won't see VTEC past 2nd gear.

If you would read my original post you would see that this is just a "dd" not a badass build project, and going from a 70hp d15 to a 120hp d15 is a big diff, and would be the extra "pep" i was looking for, and also once again like i said in the original post i looked all over the this web site for free advice and didnt find anything referring to the question asked, which is why i made this tread so next time try reading the OP before posting your unhelpful comments.
