The LS gearing will allow you to stay in boost longer, but the gearing of the GSR will give you better acceleration overall, due to the GSR's shorter 3rd, 4th, and 5th gear. I would personally go with the GSR tranny, but if you're set on swapping them out, leave the LS.

1) you'll get a better response in FI forum
2) sell the drag kit piece together a better kit
3) Ls tranny you will stay in boost longer , but that doesnt doesn't mean you will be faster. It's about acceleration with shorter gears. Gsr tranny hands down, especially if already have access to one.
