Yes, for a cam like you are looking at, for internal components, you just need to upgrade the springs and pushrods. Ti retainers are also a good idea. I would also recommend a stall if it's an A4, and decent gears. And to get the most out of it you should also consider exhaust and intake upgrades.

If you drive it much I would say 3200 - 3500. Some would say go higher. But it also depends on what gear you have. If you have 2.73's a 3500 will feel pretty loose. Lower gears will take some of the "looseness" out of it.
