Default Good cam for nitrous a4??

Just as it says Im looking for a good cam to run with a 100 shot of nitrous on a a4! I'm going to get a supporting torque converter and also supporting mods to allow usage of the cam. The only thing is I want a semi reliable street car that still kicks *** off the nitrous. I'm interested in any info I get cause I'm just confused on what's the best combo for me

nitrous and reliable should not be put in the same sentence.... but anyway a lot of cams react well to the giggle juice, depends what size cam you are thinking about going and your rpm range you are lookin for. need more details my friend

For that amount of shot, choose your cam based on your NA needs and just shoot it. You do not need a specific grind at those levels.

unless your spraying big numbers, any cam will be good.

Yeah sorry I should have been more specific but regardless ssmoken brings up a point I do only plan on using very seldom and I am really only wanting to use nitrous to put up higher numbers but I eventually want to have a pb with just motor so the rpm range i would look for would be high around 3500 on up considering I still wanna keep my 3.23 gears as I was thinking last night that the gearing is very streetAble and fuel mileage friendly well for the most part not that it's a dd but it feels good to be able to drive a far distance on one tank!

if you want the lower gear your going to need a cam with a LOWER power curve..
