I'd be liking a 224/230 before the inverse.

*Any* cam is gonna be challenged by the stock exhaust system, though. That's just giving up sooooo much hp.

If yer wanting to go w/ a custom job on stock heads, IMO, a 111 or 110 is gonna be peaky. And, probably not too torquey 'cause of that narrow lobe sep.

An A4 car requires a wider powerband than a M6 car so I dont recommend that tight of an LSA. The A4 only shifts twice to get into high gear, whereas the M6 is shifted 3 times. That means the rpm drop is greater on the A4 car. (I know, huge stall converters provide a shift extension to limit RPM drop). I suggest a 114LSA for A4 cars to provide a better idle as well as a wider power band. A 224/224 @ 114LSA or a 222/222 @114 LSA with your 3200 converter and longtubes would make a VERY nice combination.
