chipping

One of my friends has a Grand prix. on his shifter (auto tranny) there's an option for like a sport mode which shifts at higher rpms. is there anything like this for an accord where it can be turned on and off? or does chipping your car just make it permenant, if at all?

if you want to shift higher, just floor it
