i have a 1994 Prelude Si, it's automatic :-(

is there anything that will give it like a harder shift....
or anything that will not make it lose as much horsepower...

Can you please send me helpful links.

I have heard of some auto owners buying a shift kit. I don't know if there is any proven basis as to if there exists such a kit and if it does help, because I have not heard of anyone actually running one.

Dragging won't be your best thing, but you can still do Autocross events pretty well even in an automatic.

well with a shift kit you'd ur auto would be good for drag, as for where to get them im clueless, only one i've ever seen was on a Nissan Sentra "sleeper" it was my friends and he let me drive it, and they really do help. Anyways he got his installed and tuned at a Stillen Dealer which is not really anyhelp to us honda owners.

If you're serious about it, Level Ten is the place to go for automatic transmission performance.

I had a Level Ten tranny in my old rockcrawling Grand Cherokee, and it was as good as having a manual. It was incredibly efficient, the engine braking felt like it was a manual, and they also make it so that the tranny can be more immediately downshifted using the shifter.

In a prelude that has access to all four gears with the shifter, a level ten tranny would pretty much be MORE efficent than a manual, you just wouldn't have the ability to slip the clutch at all. Which only really matters if you're really getting on your car.

They know their shit when it comes to auto trannies.

They completely built me the tranny I wanted, kevlar bands, clutches, completely go through and modify the valve body...amazing stuff. The tranny in my jeep would downshift IMMEDIATELY whenever I wanted to, and it really held the power and shifts well. It would litterally shift faster than I could snap my fingers, no lag or sliding into gear, even at WOT. Simply amazing for an automatic.

If I were building up my Lude and didn't want the manual (aka Show or drag car), then I would definately go through them. They build them so well that litterally the ONLY benefit of having a manual at that point is the ability to manually slip the clutch in corners...it just plain shifts faster and more efficient than you ever could with a manual.
