If you plan on doing a stall and a cam at the same time that is a good idea. If you have to do one, then the other. Get the converter first. cammed a4 with stock converter will leave a ton of power on the table. Tht is my best "genious" guess for you. Other than that you really can't go wrong with that cam either way. definietly get a converter though is all i am saying.

get a stall between 3000-3500. that rpm range goes right into the powerband of a 224
