Default Advice/reccomendations mods

I just bought my first C6,2010 A6 with 107k miles. the car is bone stock,so far I have got TSP 1 7/8 long tube headers,TSP Off road midpipe and halltech cold air intake. nothing installed yet. im wanting to do a yank pas3400 also. my question is should I rebuild the transmission while im in there checking it out anyway? is there anything else I should do while transmission is out? what about a ported intake and ported throttle body? of course im wanting to do a cam kit but not yet. thanks!

The trans should be good for a lot more power than you're making if you have a good tune. The only thing I'd change on the trans is the filter to a truck style filter (they have a bigger intake for fluid). Before you go with the yank look at FTI or circle d, they offer a triple disc that is supposed to work well. The triple disc is kinda high but it's nice to have the option to lock it under WOT if you want. Don't get me wrong, the yank is a great converter but I hear great things about FTI and circle d also.
