Okay here is my situation. I have a '93 Civic Hatch with a LS/VTEC swap installed. Last month leaving work one day the LS transmission decided to grenade. The case is broken and there was a differential spider gear laying under the car. Since then I have picked up a JDM GSR tranny to replace the broken LS one.
Now, since I am going to put the Turbo setup back on the car, should I hybridize the Tranny? I know a lot of people swap out the final drives and occasioally the 5th gear set too for the longer LS units. Just looking for advice, I do drag race the car and still want to have it be quick without sacrificing fuel economy.

Thanks if you help!
