I disagree... longer gear ratios will always accelerate slower than a shorter gear ratio, boosted or NA. You will have a higher top end speed with longer gears though. With a short gear tranny, you'll top out sooner.

Is that for or against the LS tranny, personally i would rather feel a GSR on 10 lbs then a NA with type r tranny........

:thumb: boost can grow anyone a few chest pubes :hehe:

but seriously, id look around for another gsr tranny. youll be more satisfied when your n/a and youll rip through the gears nice and quick boosted.

take a look at this, maybe itll clear anything up?

- Wed May 26, 2010 2:13 pm #196897 gsr trans are between 450 to 750 where i live... i will say from my personal experience...

i have a ls trans with lsd behind my turbo b16, and had the same trans behind my turbo ls... imo both engines on about 9psi pushed thru the gears just fine (my turbo ls pushed thru the ls gears like my na poormans did the gsr, but the speed and quickness is what changed).... and i also have a ls trans in my dd behind my allmotor stock parts build poormans r, and when the same engine was in my other hatch with gsr gears, the only real difference i notice is in 3rd the way it pulls, but honestly i wouldnt say it killed the egnine... but thats just my .02
