The smaller duration, narrower LSA cam works better with this combination.

Now if you're running a Pro Thruster 4600, then the cam recommendations change completely. But with a tight 3200 stall, more mid-range torque is going to get the car down the track quicker than putting in a top-end biased cam.
Thanks Patrick for keeping my interests in mind. Can you take a look back on the 1st page of this thread + look at "RelativelyFast's" post, whick included dyno sheets from TSP for both MS3 + Torquer 2. It seems to show no low end torque advantage at all for the T2, which has me baffled. What do you think?

I can imagine that with an A4, the Torquer 2 would be streetable with 4.10 gears and no stall. Or even a mild 2800 at that.

Bump for this. Its a good read

So Patrick, for an A4, 4000 stall and 3.73s would the MS3 be a better choice over the Torquer 2 and 228R?

Or to add another option how about the TSP 235/240 .598/.603 112 (doesn't have a name like the others). It appears to be part way between the torquer and the MS3.
