I defintaly recommend it for N/A, it makes a biggest difference on a B20 and B18. with 4.4FD and short gearing (might want to consider lightened flywheel as well)
the b18 revs totally like a different animal, it simply gives neck snapping accelaration vs LS tranny which is way to long for any kind of sport drivng.
so find a S1 or J1 or even better YS1 with LSD

The B16 cable tranny will be revving a little high for that motor. Even if you're having it built, I would try to find a USMD 92-93 YS1 GSR tranny. You'll have the shorter gearing with slightly less rpm's cruising in 5th.
