Any cam will work unless you are going to spray a 200+ shot. Now, with that out of the way. You have several options. Don't worry about getting a nitrous cam, allthough most traditional split cams are also great N/A cams as well as Nitrous. You will see good power either way you look at it.

All the cams I have ever owned are all nitrous taliored grinds.

There is no reason to worry. I think that a 224/230 is a good cam to start with if you are an a4 with around a 3200-3600 stall converter.

But if you are an M6.
Any of them will work too. Those were just an idea of what you could do.

I think your car would roll out with a 233/239 on XER lobes with a 112 LSA.
