Sorry for my sarcasm, but is there really a "secret sauce" when it comes to cams that most vendors have. Everyone wants to have a special cam, but at the end of the day, most are almost identical in performance and specifications when spec'd for a specific application.
Find a tuner you trust and use what ever they recommend for your application, because at the end of the day, the tuner is the one you are going to hold accountable. I have a Comp Cams 54-469-11. Not a recommendation, only information.

Lobe design affects average power, valvetrain stability, and reliability. This usually isn't shared as people only look at power numbers.

Everyone has a specialty, and I chose to use someone that specializes in cam timing when spec'ing the cam.

I also have a 05 a4 and want to currently cam it. Did you use the stock converter? How was down low? Torquey? Slouch out the hole? Thanks

There are tons of cams out there that will make good power and drive/sound amazing so keep that in mind.. I went with the TSP Torquer v2, my mods and ET are in my sig. I am happy with how it drives and runs overall.
