The EX transmission has larger bearings already. But replacements for those bearings are a lot harder to find than the little ones for the DX / LX.

They hold up reasonably well until about 400hp. You can run a CG tranny out of a first gen Integra if you find you're destroying transmissions.

Carbon synchro's don't make the transmission any stronger.
OP, do you intend to produce more than 400 wheel HP ???
