I cant decide between Comp cams 231/237 .591/.601 112 lsa, TSP Magic Stick, or TSP 233/239 .595/.603 with my choice of lsa.. .. which one do yall think is best for my 02 A4 all i have so far is a lid, pacesetter longtubes,ORY,cutout,LS6 intake of course, and billet throttle body. Please help me choose.. im also thinking about puttin my car on a 100 shot of juice in the next few weeks. (FYI this is a dd) only about a 10 mile radius everyday. Thank yall so much for the advice

what gears? personally i would go with a futral cam. with it being an auto DD i would get something on a 114 lsa. remember bigger is not always better. a smaller cam will give you more lower end power and torque and with the right setup can make as much as larger cams up top

What brand converter? Unless it's an underated vigilante you need a higher stall converter to maximize any of those cams. I see you plan to spray....Does it have anti balooning plates?

There is a big difference between a 321/237 and an MS3. I would go 233/239 over a 231/237, assuming the 231 is similer to (or is) the TSP grind and has less extreme lobe profiles.

Other than matching the converter stall speed to the cam's powerband it's a matter of personal tastes.

What cat-back do you have?
