Default Changing Auto Tranny Gears

In thinkin about the eventuality of FI on my ex's 98 Ex, I was wondering if there were gears from another Honda Tranny that I could swap in while I'm having the tranny built at Level 10 for optimum effectiveness? Evetually going Fi I would need longer gears but I think that the time gap between the tranny gettin built and the engine gettin built and actually being able to purchase a turbo kit are too great.

Should I just buy a seperate auto tranny for the FI?

So for now, if we're just building the tranny to be more effective, what options for gears do I have if any to give her a better launch and better low-end?

And then when it comes to FI, what gears can I run to spool the turbo better?

Oh yeah, this is sticking with the Stock Y8

I think all 92-00 Civic auto tranny gears are the same.

And if you buy a tranny from Level 10, it will be BIG BUCKS.

Your best bet will just be stock tranny, with a high stall T/C and a huge *** tranny cooler. You should be able to run 10 psi all day long

lol, no no, not gettin the tranny from Level 10. I'm having them rebuild/fortify the Y8 tranny. The rebuild kit is like $600 not including labor. I was just wondering since the tranny would out if there was anything else I could do to benefit the tranny.

Yeah, I might even pick up a tranny cooler for her stock tranny now.
