Default 12 valve monitor computer

I was wondering if there were any brands out there that have a computer module to change shift points, monitor boost, fuel pressure and egts all on an obd2 12v I think somthing like this would help a 12v big time.

Um if you want to monitor something on a 12v'er, put a gauge on it. If you want to press buttons and change your truck, buy an electronic truck.

The computer on a 12V is very rudimentary - it doesnt have the capability to do what you want to do. Different story on a 24V.

Shift points are still changed by the kickdown cable on the 47re. the only big diff. with that trans is the governor is not mechaniclly controlled like the 46RH trans. And it's torque rating. Not a good Idea to go adjusting on that cable you go to far with it you can burn up the trans. And if it is adjusted correct and the trans in working correct why are you wanting to change shift points?
