Try this (not sure whether you are using z or z^(-1) but this doesn't affect 
the basic idea below):

Build a little FIR filter
q = Sum[a[i]/z^i,{i,10}]

Warp it.

r = q /. z -> (1 - \[Lambda]/z)/(z^(-1) - \[Lambda])

Gather together as numerator over denominator.

s = Together[r]

Get the coefficients in the numerator.

CoefficientList[Numerator[s],z]
