Default best tuner for tranny shift points?

Hey guys. I need some help here. I'm really new to Mustangs, and honestly I've never messed with tuners at all. The only thing I dont like about my car is the shift points. I don't have much power at all when starting off, mainly because my tranny shifts out of first way too soon. I just took it out and drove a few miles and shifted the auto manually, and when doing it like that it has more then enough take-off power for me. So my question is, what would be the best tuner for me to get if all I want is higher shift points? And how big of a difference would a tuner make on this? Like I say, my car is an auto, and the only mods I have are cat back duals and CAI. I don't plan on doing any more mods. I just want it to stay in the gears longer from take off. I know you guys know a lot about tuners. Any advice you can give me on this? Thanks!

You should look into an SCT X3 from one of the reputable internet tuners.

Ok, another question. When I buy the tuner, do I have to tell them what tunes to put on it, or are there already specific tunes that come on it?
