Big duration cam pushes the max torque up in the RPM range which is why it yields higher HP numbres on a dyno. HP is a function of torque at a given RPM.

This is important for a race car as it lives above 5k rpm. For street driving I'd go with a 22x/22x as other guys have mentioned. It's all about the combo working in harmony. Do as much research as you can and make an educated decision.

Didnt see mention of M6 or A4?

That's a big factor in cam choice.

If he was looking at 110 lobe sep. I would hope it is an M6. I can't imagine how much fun it would be to tune an A4 on a 110.

Personally I would look at something with softer lobes like an EPS cam or one ground on Comp LSL lobes......
