There are some ways you can identify each transmission. I'm sure you could search and find them and check it out. If they both match up

if the 88 has the original transmission, you would need to swap out the 88 clutch disc and use the 89 Si clutch disc in order to use the 91 transmission

The 88 clutch discs have more splines than the 89-91 discs.check out this link on how to I.D. What you really have

ALSO lol, if you need an 89-91 clutch disc I have a low mileage disc I could sell you for really cheap!
