    Default What trans for my turbo ef?

    I have an EF with a boosted d16 and am in need of a new trans.It has a crx si trans now.But would like to change it up a little.How well will a 92-95 cx trans work out?I have one lieing around.I know i will need a conversion kit for it.I do more highway driving than street.Wont the cx trans be better for highway runs?More top end right?Thanks in advance.

    I'm running a 90 4 door civic trans on my boosted d16z6 and I like it much more that the si crx one I had.

    No there is a DX 5spd which is probably the same as the sedan. Its a very minimal difference (gears are the same, FD on Si is slightly shorter). I personally run a Si cable trans and love it.

    I like the si trans also but want a little more top end.Is there a different 5th gear I could swap in?And is there a good lsd for this trans.

    a good lsd is made by quafe but you have to upgrade your axels bc it will snap them like nothing
