Default TR236 on stalled A4?

Hey everyone. I'm still not able to decide on a damned cam for my car, and keep coming back to one I actually bought, and returned shortly after, never installing it. The cam is the Thunder Racing TR236. 236/230, .602"/.575", 112 LSA. I want something that's big without being huge, will be nice N/A, and have some decently nasty top end. I've seen awesome results with the TR230 and wanted something more top-end oriented, so I'm looking at this. The idle isn't out of control, driveability is pretty decent, and I know the cam can pull over 7K+ RPM (from Geoff himself). I think that this cam would work well with my car, which has full bolt-ons, 3800 stall, and 3.73's. I may have to limit my spray to a 150 shot, but that's more than enough. Opinions please.

while i'm a little conservetive when it comes to cam selection,if you have a free flowing exhaust(LTs,ORY,and a free flowing catback)i think that's a good choice.i would talk to Thunder and see what they recommend for your application though,they will know what works best for that cam.good luck!
