H22 Swap Problems <Newbie>

Ok here is the story,
I have 91 accord I just put an auto h22 engine and tranny into. 3 months after starting the project everything for the first time was running great! I was on my way to have the guys that fixed my other swap problems put my ngk plugs in so I could hook up my nitrous and I ran into a big problem. I hit the freeway and decided to open it up a little, since I don't have the JDM TCU my car shifts around 6k (auto tranny), the tranny made a sound like it wanted to shift at the normal redline, but didn't. Right around 6.5k RPM'S the tranny finally shifted. When the car did shift it shot down to 3k RPM'S very fast and the check engine light flipped on. Now the car will not shift past 3.5K RPM's and the tranny is acting real strange. When the car hits 2.5K RPM's the tranny will go up to 3.2k rpm's then go to 4.5k rpm's (The tranny will go to 4.5 like this, but it won't do that for me). Almost like the tranny is trying to get into 4th gear. When I brake and the tach hits 1k rpm's the engine sounds like it is reving at hits 1.5k rpm's then gose back down. Same thing happens when it sounds like it is going into fourth. The shop I have been going to will probally be closed 4 a week, so I was wondering if you guys would be able to help. :banghead: O Yeah...If you would know where I could get a JDM TCU for my car that would be of great assistance too! :grinno:
Thanks 4 your time! :biggrin:

Here is a little update,
I used a paper clip to test and see how many times my check engine light blinked. It blinked 7 times. Dose anyone know what that means? As well my car seems to be letting off heavy fumes.
Thanks again for your replies

OK I fixed my own problem. A throttle sensor was bad and is being fixed. The question still remains does anyone know where I can get a TCU for a 92-95 JDM H22? Thanks
