You're leaving waaayyyy too many variables open.

There's a wide range of perception about what is streetable and what isn't.

A mid 230's duration cam with a 3800 stall and 3.73 gears would be a pretty streetable combo in my opinion. But even though its streetable, a smaller cam with more torque down low would be more fun on the street.

Bottom line, pick your parts as part of a complete package. You'll get the most out of your parts if they all match up.

a cam is only as streetable as your tuner is good. with an a4 it will be a lil harder to tune, but i know plenty of a4 guys runnin cams in the upper 230 duration that idle fine with a good tune. as far as converter, youre gonna wanna go with at least a 3500 stall, if not a 3800...you will kick yourself later if you dont.
