it should lope a little bit harder in your car given the 346 ci's

with a fairly tame exhaust system like the hooker or similar you will be very satisfied with the 228 on a 112. idles fairly well and peaks pretty early in the rpm range so you don't have to go way up there in the rpm range to get peak performance.

kingsey,
I just installed a 224/228 .581/.588 114 +4 in my 98 a4 with a 3600 stall. I cant imagine it with a stock stall. Car idles very rough -- whole car shakes at idle at 950 rpm. its pretty smooth running after that but I cant get the torque converter to stay locked up on the hwy even after deleting all misfire stuff. Car was tuned by Slowhawk on this board. Basically I ruined my daily driver with this cam. Going to the track tomorrow to see what it will do.

Motor mounts a probably tired but the engine running so rough is whats causing the shaking. Idle is rough and varies from around 750-1100 rpm looking for 950. Also bucks and surges under light throttle on the hwy. Also has hot start issues. gonna see if the tuner will look at it again.
