Well I'm looking for some advice or suggestions from fellow hatchers on which direction to go with my transmission. My current EP 5 speed has almost 200k on it and dont want to finsih building this motor and not do anything with the tranny. Not sure if it could take abuse from any type of boost. I'm looking for around the 350 whp mark maybe as much as 400 whp. Would it be worth it to buy a new tranny? Have it rebuild with all new Honda gears and parts or with that kinda power would it be better to look into some aftermarket gears, PPG, etc?

How much should I be looking to spend?

Thanks

That is an option. Not my 1st. Once I get everything put together and installed I hope that I wouldnt have to remove the engine or tranny for a great period of time.
