this is a good med size cam, but a car with a bigger cam and same bolt ons as you can come around and leave you in the dust.

If I was to go 224, I would choose 224/224, .581/.581 112lsa for M6 and 114 for A4.
The extra lift will take you in the 410>420 hp range H/C + bolt ons.
There is also the NEW TSP 225, 225/225, .589/.589 112+2lsa that is worth a look at.

+2 mean that your cam have 2 degrees of advance ground-in (advance = lsa - icl. In this case, lsa=112+2, so centerline should be 110). Your power will peak at a slightly lower RPM than a similar cam with no advance and you will also have more torque in the lower RPMs.

This is a brand new cam and from what I've seen so far a step up on the 224/0.581/112lsa
