Would this cam work for an auto with a stock stall? I want a better cam, and was wondering if this would give me any problems. I have a 2000 WS6 with a stock A4, stock stall.
cam specs are
226/229 .575/.578 112LSA

It would suck, I drove around for a year with only a 224/224 .563/.563 114 on the stock stall and hated it. Thatcam would make the car feel like it always has a cruise control set on, use more gas trying to stay at idle, and from a stop without any gas the car would shift to 2nd. You could lower the idle to 650rpm but then it will stall getting off the gas on a gear shift or when starting a warm engine. Definately do a converter first.
To answer your question, no. That cam will more than likely try to walk through the stock stall and pull on the brakes. Anybody even considering camming a car w/ a stock stall should be looking in the lower 220's in duration, with nothing below a 113-114 LSA.
In closing, I'll add that I agree with everyone else. Put a stall in the car first.

You can do whatever you want but that doesn't make it right. I don't know why newbie's insist on getting a cam in their A4 w/o the stall first or at the sametime. Do the stall first or buy the cam and wait to install it until you have the stall.
Same reason everyone wants an Ms4 cam and wants to have good MPG and run 373s 3500 converter and stock intake/heads.
!!!!! Would it be enough? Yes...
I would recommend a minimum of a 3400 though on ANY setup. Even a stock to light bolt on car.
The difference under normal acceleration/DD would be minimal to non existent, under WOT there would be a big difference.
