It depends on what your goals are. If you want good gas mileage, or you plan on adding a turbo to your engine, longer gears are better. If you want a quick NA car, and don't mind losing some fuel economy, shorter is better.

Long gears are not really good, even for turbo. Whatever tranny allows you to stay in 4th gear, yet be at the highest rpm in 4th, is the best tranny for you, if you are going for time slips.

The illusion of long gears and "staying in boost longer" are a myth. The reason you are in boost longer than if you had short gears is because you are going slower, thus keeping you in a gear longer.

If you want a little more "pick up" from the stop light, then an H23 or H22 Prelude transmission would be ideal. However, if you are going to be boosting or don't want to sacrifice fuel economy at highway speeds, keep the F22 transmission.

The H22 or H23 Lude trannys have shorter gearing.

Actually I did, and that is definitely new information to me. Makes sense though. I guess I learn something new everyday.

If it is for a 1/4 mile application, unless you are making enough horsepower to finish in the upper rpms in 4th with a f22 tranny, then the gearing is to long.
