Brought Out Old Betsy- My 96 Accord vs 92 Civic

after being in hibernation for a long time i decided to take my 96 accord for a spin. first let me tell you about my car (old betsy). it's a 4door automatic LX. i have the JET computer upgrade. the civic had intake and exhaust i dont know what. well i'm sitting at the light talking to my g/f on the phone when i jus happend to look back and i see a civic wit 2 kids in it and they start revving on me so i told my g/f i'd call her back. when the light hits green i gun it and i chirp pulling off the line and so does the civic i pull about 1/2 car length on him and he starts to catch up by 2nd gear he's at my door but when i hit 3rd gear i just pulled on him and by time we go to the next light i was already 2 cars ahead of him. when we got to the next light the 1st thing that comes out the drivers mouth was i had a bad launch. so i'm like well we have a 1/2 mile to the next light. so the light turns green faster than i thought so he had a little jump on me. thru 1st gear he was a little less i was at the back of his door. when i hit second i feel back to the back of his car. and he started pulling on me. but once i hit third i started pulling on him very hard. as soon as i my car shifts to 4th gear i was gone and since the next light was green i jus keep it moving i looked back he was at least 4 cars back. too bad i couldnt see his face and hear is next excuse.
when i first got the accord my gears were pretty even. but after the JET ECU my gears are all uneven my 1st gear is strong but my 2nd gear is very weak. my 3rd gear pulls very hard and i dont hit 4th gear till 110mph thats redline then 4th gear pulls hard to 125 and after that it takes forever to hit 130. well at 224,110 miles old betsy still drives like new. that civic should be glad i was driving my accord and not my srt4 hahaha
