Default Mild shift kit?

I'm looking into firming up the shifts in my '00 Z28 A4 with 2.73 gears. The only mods to the car are exhaust, lid, bellows, and possibly a CAI. This car will be 80% highway driven, so the 2.73's are fine with me.

What brand of kit would you recommend for this application?
Thanks guys!

If you're keeping the stock converter, I don't know if it would be worth it to bother with a shift kit. I'd look into getting some tuning done first and see if you can achieve your goals without even dropping the pan from the tranny. But Transgo is the most popular kit, but for a "mild" application you might consider TCI.

The Trans-Go can be modified to produce any firmness of shift you like. Let me know if I can be of help?
