Gear ratois and spool time are definitely something you want to consider, but you also have to think about your powerband on a certain engine and build as far as where it produces power. For people to say that the type R tranny and the other vtec trannies are not good for turbo is negligent. Powerband is what you need to consider when you are doing a build, not hearsay about what is good for what, based on " what I heard was" bullshit. Honestly, it is not resonable to say "this is the best for your application" till you get on a dyno and experiment. I would choose a GSR as a good middle ground to start at if I were I your shoes. There is a reason that people ( including Honda) choose the type R tranny over the LS one though for high power applications. Those long gears do sound good if you are after extended trips to the uper RPM range, but the shorter gears insure you stay in your powerband and not drop out in between shifts.
