Thinking out loud, and I don't have any experience with this, but what about a mini computer something like a Raspberry Pi?
Correct me if I'm wrong but the control board basically just takes a signal from the thermostat and re-directs that to start up and run the compressor and blower fan. The second compressor turns on when there is a 4 second? difference above temperature set point. So couldn't someone take a mini computer and build a simple logic program to do the same using relays? Or possibly even a simpler processor?
There should be plenty of room to mount it inside a box near the air conditioner. That could solve your problem if it works as I've envisioned it in my cluttered, mangled mind.
