well it's worth it if you want to make your car a lot more fun to drive beacuse of the shorter ratios. but you are probably going to lose gas mileage.

ehhh thats a tricky one. theres no real point to it. i used to have a 92 civic dx with a d15b7 motor and theres really nothing special about that engine. if you really want an si tranny you should just go all out and get the complete d16 engine.

this is the exact answer i wanted to hear, i was able to pick the si tranny for 20 bucks from a guy locally because he is leaving the tuning scene. and i couldnt find out the gear ratios but i want the short ones considering as my dd and i am not sure how a turbo will hold up in the canadian winter yet. so for whats happening now this is good. thanks.

no, but it will mostly be effected by if you drive on the highway alot since your gonna be sitting in a higher rpm.

exedy stage one clutch is way nice for an oem feel and i wouldnt bother with the flywheel on that motor. unless you have plans on building it later.

It shouldnt be a great change in MPG our motors are more efficient in the higher RPMS like around 3 to 3 1/2k you keeping it lower like around the 2 area is actually wasting gas.
