Default Which cam with Patriot LS6 heads?

I know there are too many of these threads already, but the MS4 is relatively new, and it is hard to compare back to back from 20 different threads.
Looking to see what you guys are putting down with similar setups. Stock bottom, Patriot stage 1's, 90/90 and a cam. 99 A4, probably will have a 3.73 or 4.10 depending on what tire size I end up with, and full weight t-top car. Looking at G5X4, T-rex or MS3. Dyno numbers, links, driveability, etc.
My car is more of a weekend driver but does see daily driver duty from time to time. Links to your results, from dyno, track, etc.

If your running your stock bottom end with some of those cams your going to have ptv clearence issues, thats what I ran into when I wanted to put my patriot stg 2 ls6 heads on with an ms3. I ran a smaller cam and I put down 445rwhp and 420ft lbs.

This thread is almost a year old guys. I already picked my cam- Tqr V3. Ran 11.50, with a over full weight A4(added suspension and chassis parts, tools, cooler, etc). I think it still has some left though.

Kind of wish I went bigger since it is hardly a daily driver, but with this cam I think it could easily be.
