its nice to have if you plan on dragging it at all. basically what it does is set a "rev limiter" when your car is not in motion allowing you to hlod the gas to the floor and not have to try and hold it steady when launching. just dont set it too high or too low or your defeating the purpose. youtube it and you will get a better idea of what is it.

if your just looking for the 2step you can get on ebay and order a chipped ecu. it deletes your gov. and rev limit to like 9.2 and your CEL as your shiftlight and of course 2step. I have one and its set at 4900 rpms although i want to change it to like 5100. (B16)

no not really, you can buy a chipped ecu on ebay for like $100 or less, you can have your local speed shop chip and tune your ecu if they know how too or you can also buy like hondata. there not hard to find. just check ebay, craigslist or your local shop

i wouldnt reccomend traction bars on a stock d16, or for a daily driver. its not a necessary part unless you are running high hp and on slicks you still get wheel hop.

im no expert but i would never buy a chipped ecu off ebay let alone use one of their garbage chips ur taking a big chance useing a chip someone made that has no idea your engine set up i would recommend goin to www.xenocron.com and buying a chipped ecu or goto http://phearable.net/ and order a cipping kit it somewhat easy to chip...their chips are custom to your engine set up and they let you choose where u want two step etc.
