Would it be an overkill on a daily driven car? Also, wouldnt it outdo the OEM R tranny? I was looking @ the ratios and the B16's 4th and 5th are higher. I just want some input because I was thinking of going with an R tranny but then I looked at the ratios and was wondering how well a B16 with an ITR Final Drive would perform as compared to an ITR. My current set up is all motor but plans for boost are in the later future.

It doesn't make a huge difference in RPM, but I think the B16 gearing is already a bit high for a daily driver. @75MPH its 4329 vs 4053 RPM. Maybe with an LS 5th for the freeway?
