pretty shitty combo if ur tryin to go downa straight line, combining the crappy low torque of a b16(ovesized single cam) and the long gearing of the ls isnt the best combo. if ur going boost ur better off witha gsr trans then that ls

I had a JDM B16 tranny (4.40 gearing) and it blew so I had to take advantage of a local with a LS tranny (4.24 gearing). Big mistake!!! Your always out of gear, and I hade a 174whp LS/VTEC with 142lbs of trq. Man, your car must be like a turtle with a cup of decafe coffee lol. Deffinetly get either a gsr or b16usdm or jdm. I have a list of trannies as far as gearing goes if you want it. Just PM me or something.
