Won't I need a ECU to match new engine also new wiring harness to gauges etc? Do you think it's worth doing this big swap witht he money put into it or me just buying a new transmission for my teg's run down b16 and the transmission is going to be like $900 up!

Why would you want a gsr tranny with a turbo? The LS tranny is better than the gsr for turbo applications simply because of longer gear ratios. If you ask me, the h22 thing is too much of a hassle, and if the only reason you are doing for is to be different, that really isn't worth it. . . Plus it's a pretty rare thing and very few people probably have the knowledge to do such a swap correctly without doing it half ass. You can go plenty fast with a decent turbo set up, plus you don't have to deal with all these random pain in the ass engine swap issues.
