Is there any way besides good technique and skill
for a harmonic pinch('scream') to sound better?
Erm..like the settings of ur amp or effects?

Turn up the treble all the way middle at half and bass at low or nothing and add some gain on ur amp.

Besides good technique, the next best way to bring them out is high gain and boosted treble. I don't mean high gain like indistinguishable tone-deficit gain, but at least something with a solid pair of 'em.

A compressor set up to increase the volume as the signal dies out.

Try switching pick types.I used Fender thins for almost ten years and makeing m stretchs squeel was ver hard to do.I switched to Dunlop .60 Gray picks and it almost naturaly happens when ever I tight pick a note.

i find pitch harmonics (i think that the rite name :s) quite simple in technique. i use a small pick, i hav these freakish jim dunlop things.. called "stubby" or something. if u hold these with your thumb towards the bottom of the pic (where is touches the strings) when u play the note (works best on high strings) u get the harmonic... maybe that helps?
