Default accord auto f22s. ?shift kit advice/ grounding system?

I have been told to try a shift kit
Anyone have any idea of what it would cost and is it worth it.

And will a apexi grounding do me any good or would it be a waste of $

shift kit...don't know about that...not sure if there is one since i never checked...a grounding system is good but if you have a stock car, why bother with it now. wait til you upgrade the rest of your car first.

I have done
High ouput alt
Racing cat/ exaust
Cold air intake
And a bit of audio
Removed ac/cruise control, ect

You do not think the grounding kit/ voltage stabilizer will bo worth it yet
I want a bit more power, but don't want to spend more than 500 for the parts at this time, any recomendations would be great
Thanx

IDK about the ground kit. Some will tell you they are worth it and other will tell you not to do it. Some say it helps when you have a system, don't know about that either. Take a look at your current ground wires. Are they corroded and falling apart? If so, go ahead and replace them. If not, I probably wouldn't worry about it and spend that money on something else.

If you do decide to do the ground wires though, maybe look into buying some large speaker wire and ends, then just make your own ground wires. Cheaper than buying them and probably do just the same thing. You can either run the wires the same way or get a grounding block and run all the wires to one ground location like the negative terminal on the battery.

not sure about the stabilizer, haven't heard any feedback on them. Maybe poke around on CB7Tuner, seems to be more people over there with the ground wire kits.

When you sign up you get asigned "trial user" status for a certain amount of time (like 14 days or something I think). In that time you are only allowed to post 5 times a day and aren't allowed in certain forums on the board. Once you've completed the time period, you're a allowed full membership and can post as many times a day as you wish (but I don't recommend post whoring, post count isn't what matters) and you are allowed in forums like the Honda MarketPlace and other forums that are not availible to "trial users". So just give it time and then you'll have that "trial user" removed from under your name and then you can change your avatar (make sure you follow the avatar rules when changing it).

If you do get a groundwire kit, I would jsut go with an ebay one, since there really is no difference between that and a name brand one. I have never seen a shift kit for a honda transmission, probably because people ditch the auto when going for power.
