Default shift extensions?

is there anyway to change or mess with it using tuning or are you stuck with what ya got? im running a cir_d 3200 stall and the converter doesn't have a very high shift extension, " meaning the rpms drop a little bit when the trans shifts" is there anyway to mess with it? thanks for the help guys

A little bit of nitrous will give your converter a nice kick in the ***

Higher shift points? My stock cam doesn't scream at 6k, but it only lands at around 3600 or so shifting there. Depressing.
