Default does tranny make a big difference?

Yo, I have turbo 01 LS auto integra that I'm going to switch to a manual transmission. My question is will I see a big difference in HP if I keep my LS engine but switch to either a LS, gsr, itr tranny?

Well, haha, if you were t switch to an ITR tranny, you will be running Limited Slip Deferential (LSD) which will make your launches unreal compared to running the LS tranny. If I were you, I would for sure switch to the LSD tranny. If you like the gear ratio, you can add LSD, but I like the shorter ratios of the vtec trannys.

My $0.02

I run an LS on an LS/VTEC setup and it worked great. Later Allen

Stick with the LS. You'll need the taller gears when you start boosting more. I've got a GSR tranny and my gears are too short on 14psi.
