to put it simply there is no best cam for those mods
depends on your long term goals for the car and what you intend to do w/ it
just be like me i been on here for weeks now looking over cam specs and reviews trying to decide.
also call the company you intend on buying it from, they usually are more then helpful once you know your goals...and budget =)

basically the only answers you are gonna get here are personal preferences aka the cams al the responders have in their cars. go read the sticky, learn a thing or two about cams, and at least pick a size range for us to narrow down some cams for you.

Just remember to compliment your mods to one another!
does he want it to have nice power and close to stock gas mileage? or does he want power and doesnt mind sacrificing a few miles to the gallon? what kind of power is he looking at wanting to the wheels? is it a m6 or a4?

have you heard of "one to many"... ?.. well one question (without more details) will lead to many different answers.
You should have him talk to the CAM Manufactors as they are the experts.
But IMO.. .if your basically doing a CAM only (with free mod's).. the Smaller CAM's will most likely be your best bet for all round peformance. No more than the 224's, Mid .550 to .575's lift, 114-116 LSA ? Anything more that those will most likely be over kill with the stock heads, exhaust and intake.
