Default Si tranny in Dx or z6 w/stock dx tranny?

quick questions. I have about 400 bucks to spend on something for my car. I was wondering if I should get an Si tranny for my dx for quicker acceleration or should I get a d16z6 and use my stock tranny? I dont have the funds to do a complete z6 swap w/si tranny. So I have to do one or the other. Any help please. thanks

If u look around hard enough u'll be able to find a full z6 swap for like 500 dollars. But if that wasn't an option I would get the Si motor and use my Dx tranny.

on a budget, swap the tranny first and install a clutch. then when you install the swap you wont have to pull it out in 6 months cause you wore out the dx tranny. The fial drive on the SI trannny is geared much better. Advance your timing and you shoudl be happy for a while.
