Default Which tranny should I go with?

I've decided on going with an H22 swap and putting in a JRSC instead of a turbo. Should I keep the F22 tranny, or switch to the H22. I know that the F22's longer gearing is supposedly better for FI, but I wasn't sure if it makes a difference that I'm using a JRSC instead of a turbo. Also, do I need to buy different springs for the front when I do the swap? I know this has been covered elsewhere, but I just thought I'd tack it on for ***** and giggles.

get a h23 tranny if you can or use the h22 tranny, the f22 will not hold up to that power. even though they are tall gears i bet it's still too tall even with a turbo.

He might be right. I know the H22 will fit, but it might not fit with the JRSC.

the JRSC will fit if your willing to cut into the firewall and shock tower, which i doubt anyone would want to do when a turbo is much better anyways.
