GSR or LS Tranny???
i just wanted to get some opinions on which tranny would be best for my car. its a turbo'd ls/vtec setup doing over 300whp. i have a gsr tranny in my car now but it needs a rebuild and i can get an LS tranny for a bit cheaper. please just post your opinion on which one u think would be better and most importantly why. the speed in each gear for a gsr is as follow(stock rev limiter, 8200). thanks
GSR
1st-35
2nd-63
3rd-92
4th-122
5th-150-155
LS (i dont remember that well, its been a while)
1st-35-40
2nd-70

Would the longer gears of the ls or gsr hold a turbo motor
in a better power band than that of a shorter geard itr/b16
tranny? I would think that you would want it to stay in a
given gear longer because of all the tourqe of the turbo motor.
In other words your car would pull harder at a lesser rpm. Is that wrong? Less wasted energy?
