If you do a search on here or the other site, you'll come up with enough cam data to keep you occupied for a week straight.

You have an automatic...

Slap a TR220 in there. Even with that, I needed PCM work done so the car would not stall while idling in Drive. Drilling the throttle plate hole helped, but until Thunder tweeked the PCM, it did not idle in gear good at all. The trick to make these A4 cammed cars idle good is to increase idle timing. If this is your daily driver, I can't see that you would need any more cam than the 220.
