NOt too sure about everything elseAs for what tranny I would suggest maybe a GSR it all depends on what you want tho. An LS tranny will compliment the amount of Torque that your motor has and will keep you in the power band longer. However that tranny is pretty much for good gas mileage and top speed. Personally I would go with the LS but that's just because I don't need to be the fastest car out there, and like 40 mpg (that's what my bro got with a B20/Vtec) If you want quick acceleration then I would go with a shorter geared tranny ie (SI, or GSR).

Depends if you want to go N/A or FI....If you want turbo I would suggest a longer geared tranny i.e LS. If you want N/A a short geared tranny would be perfect like a Itr, Gsr, Si.

i heard its not reccomended to mate a 1.6L tranny to anything higher in displacement. For me id stick with a GSR or ITR. Did anyone on here ever top out their stock B20/gsr,itr trans. yet?

Good gas mileage: LS transmission
Good acceleration: ITR or B16
Best of both worlds: GSR
