Help Choosing Shift Kit

Alright, the mods i have are in my signature, its a 1996 Z/28 with about 140k on the stock bottom end and A4 transmission, with my new 3.73 gears in, my shift when racing takes a little longer, so to give me a little quicker shift i decided it was time for a shift kit...
please keep in mind i dont want to go crazy with money here because future intentions for the car will require a racing transmission and it will already have a nice shift kit in it, all i want is something decent that will help me change gears a bit quicker and not kill my stock trans. Knowing this any of your recommendations would be greatly appreciated (links to the product would be nice too).
Thanks for everyones time.

Well, i got bored and had some time so i found 2 shift kits i think i like and was wondering if anyone would recommend either one of them because they're defenitly in my price range.

B&M Shift Improver -- http://store.summitracing.com/partde...5&autoview=sku

B&M Transpak -- http://store.summitracing.com/partde...5&autoview=sku

I was thinking the Transpak might be a little overboard for me seeing that all i really want is a quicker firmer shift, its described like its made for a high performance street machine and mine (for now) is only mild, i've never dyno'd it, i MIGHT be getting 350 out of the motor, lord knows what to the ground *shrugs* i hope this helps you guys and i hope to see a one sided response, thanks again!

I think those 2 kits are actually the same, but the transpak comes with a filter.
