Optimal stall and cam together, but stall will benefit more in performance (ET) gains when done first.
however if a stall is chosen, gotta then match the cam to the stall, which is backward thinking. Decide on what goal you wish to achieve, decide on cam, match a stall to the cam, stall first then do cam later.

I went with a 3800 stall, tsp ms3 cam, and cnc ported ls6 heads. Solid running car that can be daily driven, made 425hp with big stall,ls6 intake, built 4l60-e,4.10's. This thing is a monster. But before you do a cam a really good stall and tranny cooler.

With an A4, you will need properly matched components to achieve your goals. Depends on what you want the car to do and how much $$$ you want to put into it. Definitely a higher stall torque converter is a must. With NA, SC or TT setups, they TC choice will be different. If you want to stay NA, the Yank SS3600-SS4000 will be a great choice with 3.42 or 3.73 gears. I currently use the SS4000/Strange 3.73's and this works really well. I will cross the traps at 6100 rpm's. On the street, the car is a little looser than stock but, the 3.73's will tighten it up some. Throw in a tranny cooler and you will be good to go. If you wanted to replace the cam, I would go no less than a 228/228. I have the Futral F10 Cam and it drives like stock and idles perfectly at 800 rpm. I bumped the shift points to 6,600 rpm's and it pulls hard even with '98 stock heads. Replace the stock LS1 intake to a LS6 intake and on drag radials, you will have an 11 second car with a few mods like these.
