This is a comprehensive list of everything you need to make the albins trans (option 1) to work in the SI 6 speed:
Store | SpeedFactory

Albins Option 1 gear ratios:
*1st-4th gear ratios:
Option 1 - 2.93 / 1.70 / 1.19 / 0.93

Acura part numbers
23580-RAS-010 acura mainshaft 5th
23461-RAS-000 acura countershaft 5th

TSX gear ratio is .825

Honda part numbers
23444-PPT-315 3/4 sleeve set
23432-PNS-315 1/2 sleeve set

synchros:
you can use the stock ones... but highly recomended to get the carbon synchros from Synchrotech. If you're spending this much dough to get the trans, an extra $300 will give you smoother shifts and longetivity. Get the 1-6 Synchro set (~$50/synchro)
Synchrotech Carbon Synchros

Synchrotech also offers the 1/2 and 3/4 sleeve sets. If you can get both sleeve sets for under $400, then buy them elsewhere, otherwise get them through Synchrotech as they are super cheap.

If you get the 1/2 and 3/4 sleeves+1-6 carbon synchros from synchrotech, it should cost ~$825

Trans fluid:
Torco trans fluid
RTF racing transmission fluid (get 5 quarts, you'll need to do a trans flush/change after initial break in of 500 miles)
MTF standard transmission fluid

suggested: get a magnetic drain plug. This will help keep metal pieces from floating around and it'll increase longetivity of the trans.

Albins option 2 will be available in August (supposedly)
Gear ratios:
Option 2 - 3.0 / 2.0 / 1.47 / 1.10 (available soon!)
These ratios are better for using the stock 5th and 6th gear.
You'll still need to get the sleeves and synchros for 1-4.
This trans is more for auto-x than drag due to the closer ratios. (assuming stock FD)

the 4.38 is available for $1070 at time of purchase, HOWEVER, it is not needed unless you're going for a pure drag setup with BIG power, or want to use it with option 2

tsx gears 60+70 = 130
sleeves + 1-6 synchros =825
albins trans = 3850
Torco Trans fluid = 20x5 = $100
Magnetic drain plug = $10
Total = 4915 + shipping/handling

OPTIONAL: 4.38FD $1070

 

Good info. Maybe someday if my tranny dies..

 

The store has been updated. Version 2 ratios are now available as well as a whole slew of new available FD ratios have been added!
