Default gear vendors + 4l60 with twistmashine controller

Ok ive bought a Shrifter paddleshifter with a trans controller from twistmashine.. but going thru the numbers th seems ike the 4l60 tranny has some BIG steps between the gears.. i saw in geatvendors HP that they sell an OD unit to add an inbetween step on all the gears and in effech make an 8 speed tranny, with a .50 final OD.. now my question is:

can my compushift be set up to cotroll all 8 gears seamlessly??
1st. - 1st.+OD - 2nd - 2nd+OD - 3rd. - 3rd.+OD - 4th - 4th+OD ??

This is how DEVIOUS is set up from Bolwer.

However it does not work like that yet, I think they are still working on it

Jason is correct. We are waiting to get our truck back together to do the final test on our Tap-Shift control module. It works in conjunction with the Compushift and the Twist Paddles to exactly what you want. The first prototype works well, and the one in Wes Rydell's '54 CoolAir works well. We have been trying to refine it and finish it, however we ran into issues with my electronic engineer, seems as though he likes the challenge to make the first one, then we loose interest. Enough excuses, we are buried with work and new product designs, hopefully we will have them by spring.
If you can not wait, Mastershift has an option that works. But will not work with the Twist paddles and you have to replace your shifter with the system, and use the paddles as the shifter.

4L60E/80E + paddle shifters and Gear Vendors does seem like a sweet setup. Especially if you can get the paddle shifters to work seamlessly and go through all 8 gears in that setup
