Default Not alot of talk of A4 cam only setups???

I'd like to see opinions or setups of cam only AUTO's...
U dont see as many as the 6p setups guys...

Here would be the basics
Pacesetters,ory,lid,pulley,ptb,dual/dual,pliugs,LS6 intake,918's,ti retainers..
Vig 3600,trans go,3.73's
most susp mods
17in Dr's

Now what I'd like to see is a cam that makes good hp/tq to 6300 w/a shift point of 6500....the other requirement would be a lopey idle but not to the point where u cant drive the car,just something that sounds tuff threw the exhaust......

Goal would be 3700lb 11.70 sec setup....

You really dont need to make big power with an auto. If you can get a good trans/converter cam and some suspension and tire it will run its *** off. A local guy here on the board his name is skinnies on here made 360ish and went 11.3x's wheels up with 17's on the front

True, mine was running mid to low 12's before the cam with just a vig 3200 and some headers with a tune and suspension.
