You will need to get an obd2 --> obd1 harness, and convert to obd1. But you can not use s100 or s200 with an automatic tranny. I'm not sure, but I think you can use stage 2/3/4 with auto trans, but I would check with hondata. I was browsing through their site, but could not find solid info. Sorry.

I know you said that you cant get a 5-speed, and not too ask.

But all that money you have spent on the current setup you have now, and still using the automatic transmission, is there a certain reason why you are using the auto?

Just wondering

Keep your auto, it's actually better under boosted conditions. You just should have some work done to your torque converter. There is a company that was in an issue of Honda Tuning I think, they revane your converter so that your stall speeds are either raised or lowered, but the end result is better fuel economy better acceleration and in some case better than a 5 spd.

Best thing about the auto tho is that you can stand on the brake and gas it a bit to build boost pressure before you even take off. So basically, launching under boost as opposed to building it after. VERY FUN...take some time and research, work on your torque converter.
