Just lengthening the first couple gears would make a world of difference.:thumbup:
Man, I've been wanting to do that since April when I swapped this DX/CX combo in. The CX 1/2 rules. It's everything after that that sucks. The gearshafts HAVE to be interchangeable, and if you could throw a CX 1/2 in a Si gearbox... then no more driveability problems. Er, fewer at least...

It would be great with a small-medium sized turbo, but wouldn't be a good thing with an excessively large turbo (unless you have a shutterbox or N2O) because it would take forever to get it spooled and off the line. Once you do, I bet the pucker factor from it would be about 99%, though... You probably wouldn't need a seatbelt if you know what I mean.
