which tranny?
hey guys looking for what tranny is best for a ls/vtec turbo swap in a ej coupe. i am doing some research for a buddy of mine. i searched the whole forced induction thread and found nothing. i know most of you guys are just going to tell me to search but i am lazy and would like some input. thanks in advance.

Re: which tranny? (EK 2 9K)
how much power is he making? im serious if time slips are important...
my buddy has a 1.8l with an B16/ITR tranny... when he has his slicks on he will have to shift into 5th before going threw the traps...it sucks *****... ~120mph... about 350-400whp should get you there...
with a GSR tranny that would give him another 10mph on the traps before having to shift... trappin ~130mph
LS would get you to about 140...thats low 10s
