The EX/Si D series trannys have shorter gears than the LX/DX

- Fri Apr 13, 2007 2:40 am #5443 some people like long gears for turbo, but shorter gears will always accelerate you faster, especially with a turbo. I'd rather accelerate faster since that's the speed I'm usually driving in and lose some mph on the top end. Cause how often do you really bury the speedo?

the DX/LX is very similar to the EX/Si tranny the tranny you want to stay away from is the VX/CX those are soooo long it makes a 3 hour movie look short

i did read the post - if you worded it better or maybe found out what model it was or even better the engine code you could have got some better help.
