shorter gears are always better no matter what you do.

nobody likes shifting to 5th gear in a 5 gear 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.

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.
