Um, an S80 is a Hydro b-series tranny; S1 is a Cable b-series tranny.
Have you seen either type before?
I mean are you a total newb to B-series tranny?

i need the LS tranny from the 90-91 teg. it has longer gear ratios and is best for boost from what ive herd. I dont know much outside of the cable type trannies.

stay away from the 90 USDM S1 tranny, get a 91-93 YS1(ls) tranny since it's befier than the 90. since you didn't specify what setup your running, i can tell you that 1 and 2nd gear will pull really good, third and fourth is where this tranny dies for the N/A guys. but in your case, you'll be boosting hard on third, and fourth gear!

Okay first of all by YS1 wouldn't we be refering to the 92-93 B17A's tranny?? Then also how much boost are you planning on running... I would not recommend that tranny unless first you are hybridizing it or second you are running some high *** boost ... Probably somewhere around 20lbs.+ (which then means you have a fairly built motor) It takes a lot to spool with an LS tranny... A straight LS tranny hurt my friend's daily driven GSR turbo EK that made 506whp on 22lbs.. Once we added custom gearing it ran a lot better but you will have to do that work and it does get expensive... If you are running anything under that much boost I would just recommend an B17's (YS1) tranny... Also I've been going off this whole time assuming that you have a VTEC motor... What motor and what mods do you have done?? Peace

-- no, YS1 tranny's are all 92-93 Integra tranny's, both LS and GSR, JDM and US. JDM B16A YS1 tranny's have an optional LSD though.

Damn, that's tight... never knew that... My bad.... Don't work with cable that much and whenever I heard YS1 come up I always just assumed the B17A's tranny... Thanks... Peace

actually, the YS1 tranny's are from 92-93 years only, all 90-91 US LS trannys are S1's.
