Talking Which CAM for my A4 TA ?

ok guys, I've done a few searches and read alot of the threads.. but I guess a cam is something you can't decide based on someone else's requirements so here is what I am looking for..

1 - Mid - Upper range power .. Since the TC, I can barely hook off the line as is, so something in the mid to upper range would be great!!
2 - Sounds badass at idle and WOT
3 - Streetable! - my car is a daily driver!
4 - Maximum HP gains [ties in with # 1 ]


Recommendations plz !

Mods listed in sig.

Thanks!!

Your mods are very similar too mine. My TSP 233/239 is very streetable with a good tune. Ran 11.8@114mph on motor. I get a lot of compliments on the idle. Idles around 900rpm.

I've got the same cam as Caribe. I'll be on the dyno tommorow getting a tune so I'll try to remember to tell you how it goes. And it does sound very mean at idle.

I'm also considering the TR227.. How does it compare to the 230?
