Default TIMING BELT & WATER PUMP HELP!!!

Hey guys, Im new to this forum, and new to Audi's.

I just purchased a 2000 A4 1.8T Quattro. I have 163000 KM's (im from Canada)
My water pump is going, so I'm planning on replace the Timing belt, tensioners, and water pump.
I see theres alot of timing belt kits available, are they any good, and reliable???
Should I consider a kit? If yes, can anyone recommend one specifically?
Something available to Toronto, Canada.

Thanks guys

Just did my A6 with their kit and rented the specialized toolkit as well. I was very happy with both kits and their service.

the reason lightweight pulley deal from ecs isnt recommended is because it isnt balanced for our engines... it can wear very slightly on the engine internals over time...
