Reducing Slippage Risk

I have been on a mission to find better execution than using TS8 via TS
brokerage. 
I am full time trader and I use TT Xtrader Pro for a lot of my trading via a
direct exchange gateway and the slippage on the liquid contracts is ~0. 
I have run a couple of example FX futures systems using VB on XTPro and TS8
at the same time just to compare the execution result. Average slip on TS =
2ticks average on XTPro = 0 ticks. Makes huge difference when you are
running intraday strats over months. 
Although I consider TS a great platform for development and testing it would
be a real PnL advantage to be able to port the signals from TS8 to a better
execution platform. Is anybody doing this? If so how do I do it. 
Had a look at the Futures and Options World seminar last week in London and
there were a few alternatives for Algorithmic trading but they would involve
redevelopment and learning of a new language. I would still like to develop
on TS.
