you don't want it to shift harder, you want it to shift quicker....the harder an auto shifts the quicker you will tear it apart along with everything else in the driveline....


the fact of the matter is that the automatic transmission in your accord will outshift 99.99% of the people who drive sticks....

There are a few things you can do

Install a shift kit
Install a beefier torque converter

and there is one thing that can never ever happen with a properly functioning automatic....miss-shifts
