dx or ex tranny
 

whats the best for turbo?

Re: dx or ex tranny
 

shorter gears are always better no matter what you do.

Re: dx or ex tranny
 

not always
nobody likes shifting to 5th gear in a 5 gear tranny
if u got 400 whp its nice to have a slightly slower tranny so u dont change gears like a cocain addict

i got a dx tranny on my turbo setup i like it but they are kind of long

Re: dx or ex tranny
 

yeah maybe but i'm pretty sure he doesn't have 400hp sitting under his hood if he is trying to figure out what tranny is better :-\.
and i have an ex tranny and i think i have only been into 5th maybe twice.

Re: dx or ex tranny
 

ex is better

i have a dx in mine, and it SUCKS!!!! i'm hunting a ex now!!!

Re: dx or ex tranny
 

ha, i have a CX in a car right now. Ouch.

Re: dx or ex tranny
 

i had a dx, now have an ex. i LOVE my ex. its definitely not too short for a turbo app IMO, unless you're gonna be pushing over like 400hp (which disqualifies most of us d-series guys :-\)
im also running a spec stage 3 clutch and a fidanza 8lb flywheel on it. u have no idea how much quicker it'll build boost and rev. no idea whatsoever. its like night and day.
