Cam in A4 with stock stall???
Cam in A4 with stock stall??? I'm thinking a cam is my next mod. I have an A4, and changing the convertor is out of the question. What are some good cams that maintain good drivability on the stock stall?
any reason stall is out of the question

Verdad Gallardo yes it will work.. but it is not recommended.. stock cam will perform better with a stall.. so common sense tells you a larger cam than stock will work even better with a stall

are u running a trans cooler besides the factory one? i ran my TCI 3500 for week without a cooler because i was waiting for parts and it was perfectly fine. Now i have a B&M supercooler (20,500) in addition to the stock cooler, and everything seems to be running a ok. There are thousands of people on this site running stalls, any other reason it seems to be overheating?

I'm going to be using a 233 cam after I get my baby back from my boy's shop. ...Funny thing is that I'm on a stock stall for a bit till I can get a few more bucks together to throw in the Yank SS3600. .. Driving her till that time is gonna SUCK! 
i have a 4000 vig stall... and i drive my car about 50-70 miles a day...
only time it over heats is if i do 4-5 track passes back to back with only about 3-4 minutes in the staging lanes...
OP... why is a stall out of the questions..

Cam + no stall = sucks
Plus, your car will most likely be slower than it was stock.
I highly recommend a stall before a cam. A good tranny cooler will keep overheating down. I use the Hayden RapidCool and love it.
