Yeah, especially if you like running slower than with a GSR/B16 trans, and potentially falling out of boost on shifts

Yo man, mah LS trans on mah TURBO cah go so fast, I replaced mah GSR and VTEC kicks in 143 RPM fastAR!

I went through it too, bought into the hype that an LS trans just rocks the paint off the wall for a turbo car. I had a hatch with an 81.5mm GSR and a .81 A/R PT67. and on the 1-2 shift and 2-3 shift it would fall down almost into vacuum. On the 3-4 shift it only fell down to 5 pounds of boost so I guess that was OK.

No crap. Lets recap from the last 18 million threads on the this topic:
-Shortest geared tranny will accelerate the quickest.
-Most people cop out and get a LS tranny or gsr tranny to aid in traction and to "stay in boost longer" which blah.
-Get a good tire, suspension and boost controller setup to compensate for traction....not longer gearing.
-MPG suffers with the shorter geared tranny.....get LS 5th gears to solve this hype.
-Only get longer gears if your rev/tire size/mph limit you from running the shortest geared tranny.
