Default need opinion about 2001 accord modifications

i really need opinion on some modifications. iam taking my car to the shop to install my level ten torque converter. how does the ecu conversion harness work? i seen one for my car but what ecu would i use? i saw in one of the other photo topics a 98-02 accord turbo charged about how much will that modification cost? and is there any other modification that is overlooked that can help the performance of my slow 4cyl?
heres a pic of my 2001 4cyl

level ten torque converter??

theres one for the F23 tranny? i would think it would kill the tranny faster... but have fun doing it..haha

ECU? are you talking about a after market one? i think mines is chiped cuz all the settings are off. Too much fuel on WOT, VTEC TOO EARY... fun yes... but tranny died in a year..
I just want to make a full N/A f23..but get rid of the auto tranny.. it will bite u in the rear in a year or less

the tranny is gonna get a pts kit as well (rebuild to handle performance) ima put the f23 automatic on the map. of couse with a lot of money but hey it would be origunal. as for the torque converter it doesnt have to be a levelten u can call tranny shops and see if any of them manufacter or rebuild torque converters. just request to have a high stall torque converter built. try to get as many mods on your car as possible though. the reason is most shops build the torque converter to existing mods or to a set level of performance. ima have mine set for my existing mods and my turbo kit performance low and end kit. it sounds dumb to modify a automatic but i love the challenge. my 87 maxima went through the same thing and the v6 beast overcame the odds and unfortunately i blew the engine (too much spray). RIP MAXIMA LOL
