trannys for boost

[jdmkid]

I use the H23 trans with my F22 motor. I absolutely love it. Gears are close together. If i shift at 7000rpm rpms fall between 5000-5500 in the next gear. I love it... However cruisin on the highway at like 70mph i'm at like 3500rpm... and i use larger then stock tire size... I can hit about 120mph in 4th gear at about 7200rpm.

ya thats why i dont want the f22 tranny cuz of the rpm drop when it shifts i want it to stay 5000 and up

its a rare case that anyone manages to beat me at that speed. 140 is enough for me plys i like crusing at lower rpms on the highway. everything i said was factual, and it is up to him to make a decision from the info he gets. all you are sayin 92ex is that h23 trans has "best gearing" ....

....what is best gearing?
....best gearing for what, drag, auto-x, top speed?

Best gearing for street. And what you said doesn't really mean anything, so your in 4th gear instead of 3rd, so you can't go 155mph, darn

I've heard that h23 trannies tend to have more problems than an f22 (read it somewhere, forgot where). I don't know when your turbo will fart out on, but it might not get boost after like 6000 RPM. You need to think about the turbo's capabilities as well before deciding on what tranny so you can make the proper decision. Just my opinion.

I ran the h23 tranny for about a week on my turbo setup, then switched to an f22a6 tranny (forgot the tranny code) and haven't looked back since. I do a good bit of freeway driving and like the longer gearing, and my turbo is fully spooled at 3000rpm's so if it drops to 4800-5000 on a shift, o well.
I still have my h23 tranny though, and am looking at building it with a quafe LSD and better synchro's while riding on my f22 tranny.
Once my motor is rebuilt the rev range will be slightly expanded so the h23 tranny will act the same as the f22 (Atleast as far as rev drop is concerned) and when I get serious with it, taller slicks will also be in order, which will also counteract the shorter gearing. L8r all

Yea that pretty much mirrors what i said, i get full boost at 2800 and i dont care if revs drop to 4500 between shifts because that would land me right at the peak of my torque.

i've actually heard the oppsoite. The h23 case is a little bigger to accomidate the larger diameter gearing inside... the h23 trans is definatly beefier then the f22...
i dont get full boost till 5000rpm so this trans works great for me.
