cam advice:thunder racing cams hello to all,i am new to this forum not new to drag racing .Well i am in need of some 2nd,3rd & 4th opinions.First off i own a c5 00 its an A4 since i have owned it i am on my 2nd transmission we upgraded it put a shiftkit 3200 yank stall,Ls6 intake Halltech cobra ram air , patriot performance stage 2 heads & a 3.42 gear in the rearend & i have been running a stock camshaft ,it made 360rwhp & 380ftlbs of tq to the tires that was locked unlocked the torquewent to 360 but the rwhp stayed the same i am hoping to hit the 400 mark or more .I would like to know if anyone on the forum has been running this cam in an a4 with a 3.42 & a 3200 stall230/224 .575/.563 111 LSA ifso did itbuck down low Do you think i have enough gear to run this cam? my buddy has it in his car & hes running a 6 speed with 3.90 gears heres another cam i am looking @ 230/236 .590/.598 112 LSA 2400-6800 RPM Power Band. Excellent mid-range & high RPM power. 3200+ stall, 3.42+ gear, computer tuning required. Due to the fast ramp rate of this camshaft, the use of 1.8 rockers is not recommended. i appreciate any comments to this thread thank you for your time & reading this thread

I am currently getting everything together and about to buy the 230/236 cam you mentioned but i am going to spray the crap out of it... i plan to hit atleast 4oorwhp with it cam only and all bolt-ons (my mods listed below) then next season(mabey this winter) will come the direct port 200 shot.
but since you already have heads i would just give thunder a call and give them the flow specs on you heads and have then custom grind you a cam.
