Default what tranny should i use on my turbo setup

i have a b18c1 motor fully done with a t3/t67 turbo and with a b16 Y21 tranny. it has a oem lsd which im actually afraid that it will break with the amount of power im trying to get. im getting a quaife lsd to solve that problem. now my question, should i just get a gsr tranny to put the quaife in or just use the b16 tranny? i only want a gsr tranny b/c the gears are longer. i never really had a issuse before with the b16 gears but the turbo was a lot smaller and since i have a bigger turbo the power will come later. is the gears between the gsr tranny and b16 tranny that much different? is anyone using a b16 tranny on a high horse power setup?

trying to hit 500+ on 21-23 lbs

I'm using a b16 tranny with my setup.....Its a little short, I would prefer a GSR tranny if I had the choice, but I already have a Quaife for this one, so that's not gonna happen

if you're running big slicks a B16 tranny isn't really all that short... hehe

IMO GSR tranny. I find B16's to be short and the LS to be just a tad bit too long.

I run a Mugen LSD setup for drag in a EG6 Y21 on my B18C setup. With my old 215/50-15 ADVAN A048 (SS compound) tires the EG6 tranny produced better 60ft times than my GSR tranny and got me into 3rd gear much faster. Hopefully it will do the same with 225/50-15 BFG's.
