Default What tranny is better for Mini Me Turbo! DX or EX/SI

What tranny is better for my setup I got Dx or Si/Ex? I did a Mini Me turbo (D16Y7 w/98 Vtec head). I just got this turbo setup put in but not sure what tranny is better for it. HELP PLEASE......I have a 94 DX hatchback tranny, 96 Cx tranny and 93 Ex tranny from a coupe.

I just put in my y8 with a dx tranny and I love it. I cruise the streets in 5th sometimes, so I think the si may be overrated for street use. Dx seems more plentiful anyway.

I've ran into differences in the 88-89 Si trannies. I think there is a heavy duty version out there, the spline has one more tooth (something like that, been a while since I had one apart).
