Default Best timing chain replacement

I'm currently looking at purchasing a 2007 Audi S4 B7. I have done some research on the car and found that the timing chain is known to have some problems (as i'm sure you all know). I ran a car fax on the car and found that there is no evidence that the car has needed a replacement and the owner says the engine sounds perfectly fine. But, I've learned that they are known to go out at random times. So I figure if i'm going to get the car I might as well just replace it right away so that I know it won't have any problems in the near future. My question is, what is the best kit I can buy? I have a pretty good budget to spend, so don't worry to much about cost. I just want the best (strongest) possible kit I can get my hands on to avoid this problem. (Yes, I understand this isn't something you just buy and all the problems and responsibilities go away. I plan on babying the hell out of this car.) Any other advice on this situation or similar scenarios is welcomed and much appreciated!
