Default ATTN Bolt-On and Cammed A4's- Help me out

I have been Raughammer's site and read various threads and am coming to a decision as to what cam I want to put in. Im going mild, nothing past a "burble" in terms of lobe so we are talkin 112-114 lsa. I have an a4, but the the st3500 going in, the TB drilling and high idle wont be a problem <img src="images/icons/smile.gif" border="0"> Im thinking of the MT1 T1 cam. What do you guys think. Also i will be having my FLP's on there. Pretty potent combo together arent they! <img src="images/icons/smile.gif" border="0"> Thanks for any input/views.

As long as you raise your idle you'll be fine. You may need programming to squeeze all the power out.

I have a T1 cam. My best time as a bolt-on car was 12.43 @ 108.XX MPH. My best time now with the T1 is a 12.11 @ 111.XX MPH so I have gained a tad over 3 tenths and 3 MPH with just the cam. The weather was nearly indentical on both runs and the raceweight was within 30 pounds. I don't even have headers, if I did, I would likely have gained even more with the cam!

941s. I do not hop right into the car and beat on it though. I always drive it for a little while before I romp on it....
