Default Transgo Shift Kit or B&M Shift Improver

Which do you guys think is better? I usually like to street race and since i couldn't get stick shift, i can't race well on the streets with my auto tranny. Which of these is a better brand and better product? I understand there's another B&M product called the B&M transpak?

So it's basically

Transgo Shift Kit vs. B&M Shift Improver Kit vs. B&M Transpak

I can afford either of those so money aint an option.

my car is a 2002 z28

There will not be a lot of performance gain from a shift kit, but the transgo when properly installed, seems to work well.

If you race on the street, you need a 3500 stall converter and nittos. That will make a HUGE difference.

as far as being out and on the street my setup works well and im equally impressed when i go to the track

Vigilante 3200 with the Transgo kit, and nittos
runs 12.4s consistantly

stay away from the B&M products as those have been known to burn out the 4L60E. the only trick with the transgo is when its done properly as it should be it takes about 3 hours of labor and thats if the guy knows what he is doing, watching the video and doing it from that will take anyone about 6-8 hours to complete.
