Default chipped ECU for 5th gen SS auto?

I am purchacing a 97 SS base lude, and I was wondering if any companies out there offer a performance chip for this car.

I am new to the prelude scene, and this is my first automatic, which i heard was a bad decision.

I drove this car, and it shifted fine, but the shift points seem low, maybe a chip to improve on the shift rpm, or maybe a more aggressive downshift?

Like I said I am new to this automatic thing, and I dont want to do much to the engine of my prelude at all. I just want the transmission to respond a little better to my foot response.

Thanks in advance....

I don't think there are any performance chips for the Prelude, or I just haven't heard of any.
If you want the transmission to respond better then might as well go for an aftermarket Torque converter...

not bad...just horrible

I hope it's just for daily driving and good luck

if the shift points seem low, throw the shifter into that little sequential box next to d4 and redline away.
