Default Finally figured out why I'm losing power when cornering

Lately my car has been losing power when I corner and my tach has been acting erratically. But the other day a friend of mine who's a tech at a local Honda dealer figured out why. Supossedly back in the day there was a recall on the ignition switch on the EFs because the clamps on the wires would end up comming loose when the car turned. So, now all I need to do is replace the clips when I get a chance.

the ignition switch? like where the key goes? my car will seem to hit rev limiter at like 4k sometimes during autocross...it'll get stuck at a certain rpm for a couple seconds, then be fine. but it also happens in the straight aways.....only happens in auto-x. odd.
