Stick with a vtec transmission either out of a si or gsr or type r. The b16 and type r transmission share the same gearing however the type r transmission has a limited slip from the factory which improves traction greatly. But if you dont want to spend the money get a b16 or gsr tranmssion. Stay away from the integra ls transmission the gears are very long and horrible for all motor setups. Good luck!!

Dam thanks! and one more thing what is the code of those tranny? I know b16 is S1 but the other I really dont know thanks!

Check out this site it will have the transmission code and even the gear ratios. Make sure you pay attention however to which ones are hydolic and which are cable so you dont get the wrong one.
