Default Cam for A4.

What cam would be recommended for an A4 Stock Displacement full bolt on cam-only car. I also might be looking at a set of PRC LS6 heads. The main factor is that I have a 3600 stall and dont want to rev past 6200-6300.

Ive been thinking about the Torquer v.2 or possibly a TSP 228. Im also thinking about running a 100-150 shot of nitrous.

I just installed a TR230/224 and I love it. It makes great power at any RPM. I run it with a PT4400 and 3.23's currently. It's a monster on the highway and it has good street manners. Sounds mean at idle too. It's an awesome street cam.

For both of the guys above. What is it that you love about your cam. Whats the power range. What kind of power curve do you have? Any graph available?

That would be helpful. Im looking for a good torque curve. Ive got an '03 Cobra that I need to just completely sh*t on. He put down 477 rwhp. We are good from a dig. I just rip him off the line but by 3rd gears hes strolling by.

A friend had a cam spec'd by Patrick G with similar goals, A4 shift at 6200. He called out a 224/228 @ 111+4, .609/.588.
