Which cam for A4? Should i go with a 112 or a 114, my car isn't a track car, i want the car to idle good and put down decent numbers, currently have flp headers, running cats, borla exhaust, was thinking of 2800-3000 stall with 3.73 gears. any opinions?

i would say anything that is 224/224 with a 112 would be nice, i have a custom grind 224/224 567/567 on a 112 and have it to idle a 850. also have a 3200 vig stall.

That what i was thinking too, just wasn't sure if i should go with that cam with a 112 or 114, i was thinking a yank 2800 stall with 3.73 gears. i don't race, just wanted something that would be fun on the street.

I will tell you this you will regret not going with atleast a 3500 stall. And as far as cams its all about your goals power wise and sound wise. I dont go to the track but once in a great while and could care less about ET's. My goals were to have a fast/powerful car without sacrificing drivibility and I couldnt be happier. I'm averaging about 17-18mpg in the city, almost every stalled auto I have seen that is under 3500 have upgraded. But like I said its about what your goals/expectations are. There are plenty off 224 cams that make really good power tho.

224/224/ comp cam extreme lobes on a 114 is a sweet street track cam but a 112 will give similar perf while roughing up the idle just a hair. It's what i used to run some good times back in the day.
