transmission locking up?

Hey guys- new here

i have a 97 2.2 beautiful cl. i recently installed a new intake along with headers and high flow pipe- and exhaust. Directly after, my O2 sensor started freaking out. My check engine light turned on and thats what the little machine said was wrong. Anyway, the day before yesterday my car started just reving up but not moving. It shifts perfect but when I accelerate, I dont go anywhere. The machine thing now says o2 sensor and speed sensor. I pulled out the speed sensor and took it to dealer but they said that shouldnt cause my car to not move. Ofcourse they told me to bring it in to service. I just had it towed 45 miles to a tranni shop. Has anyone had a problem like this?
Thanks,
Christina

sounds like youre out of tranny fluid. the vss (vehicle speed sensor) is the main sensor for the tranny.. all the pressures, shift points, etc are all done by speed and case sensors. there is a problem with the accords.. same tranny basically... with the lock up solenoid. which wouldnt make the car sit still and rev. if thats the case i think your out of fluid.. or its just really low.
