Default Camshaft...

Would this cam make a good streetable cam with a solid idle? I do alot of city traffic driving so I need something that won't die on me at a light.

Your stock cam is 198/209 .500/.500. That cam is 206/214 .500/.500. I doubt you would notice any difference at all. Save your money on that one. Kind of wonder why Crane would even grind a cam that close to stock. Look at a TR 220/114 or a TR224/114 if you want a good conservative cam for an A4 car.

My setup would work perfect for you, cam is very steetable, will notice power gains, and gas milage does not suffer. Idle is very nice also.
