Default question about electronic shift improver

Does anybody know if there is a some kind of electronic shift improver for a c5. I have a superchips tuner now and it makes it shift very good but I want to buy a NOS kit but I can't use the superchips tune with it because of the timing advance. So I am looking for something to maybe just plug in to the tranny to improve the shift. I really don't want to take the tranny apart to install a real shift kit. Thanks.

I assume you have an auto. LS-1 Edit has a component for the transmission. You can program the shift points and the firmness of the shift. I have mine set for upshifts at redline when at eide open throttle, about 600 RPM higher at partial throttle, and firmer shift. It made the driveability muxh better.

Does that do away with the pain in the butt torque management?
