have a 95 LS teggy. i wanna know if anyone smart can tell me what tranny i should go with when i turbocharge my car. i can either keep the stock tranny, or i can put my JDM b16hyd (gsr)tranny with lightend flywheel and stage 3 clutch. I have heard two different stories. 1. the ls is better because of its wide ratio tranny and you want the for a turbocharger app because of spool. 2. i also heard from another person that i should use the gsr tranny because its close ratio and will help for faster spool up, and most factory turbocharged cars have close ratio trannys. can someone please help me with this???

No time in the search for being faster has a longer geared tranny made that happen. The simple fact is the shorter the gears, the faster the car (given they are otherwise the same).
