You should probably do some research on the MS4 cam, I believe you have a bit more parts to buy..

Is the car an M6 or A4? You'd want at least 4.10s in an M6 and at least a 3600 stall in an A4. You also need new springs and pushrods. A new oil pump and timing set would also be a very good idea. If you don't have an ls6 intake I would look into that as well. Get the supporting mods you need first and don't ghetto the install. Do it all right the first time. If you spent a solid hour of researching the site you could easily find out what others are running and what works good with this cam. Tons of info about the MS4 on here.
