I had ordered GM's hot cam kit but heard about people with A4's having problems with it, so I canceled my order. That being said you can look at my sig for my mods, what would be the best cam kit and where to get it at? I don't want a crazy cam where I have to reprogram my PCM and get terrible gas mileage, I just want a cam that will keep my gas mileage the same or better and that does not require nor recommend PCM reprogramming, but at the same time will give me a nice power/torque gain. I don't know much about cams so I need the part numbers and/or direct link to get all the parts needed ie. rocker arms, springs, etc. Thanks.

TOO much cam for an A4. You will have problems with idling, converter lockup, etc. An LS6 cam would be a nice boost in power and they're cheap. Want a tad more power with no headaches? See my sig. Good luck!
