yes it will be faster... the gear ratios are more favorable for speed than the dx gears. It's not going to run any "better" unless your current tranny has problems. overall it is a good swap if you plan on staying with the sohc.. but if you plan on swapping over to dohc later on then I would just leave it alone
but would an EX tranny from a d16y8 fit a d15b7 without any modification
