Better gear ratios, shorter gears(numerically higher)

Is the b16a tranny stronger then the b18c1 and can it handle more power? How much torque can it hold? Thanks

I have a ctr (b16) trans and head to head with a friend of mine with a gsr trans, I was well into the next gear long before him....I am a fan of the B16 tranny

regarding torque isssues and all, I don`t have much info to provide you with, just know that with a N/A set-up, there should be no issues
