They are just your stock run of the mill heads....sorry. Ported they are pretty good but if running OEM heads I would have AI or TEA port a set of 243/799 heads. They are simply better and can make a lot of power and are a a good bang for the buck IMO though not the cheapest OEM heads out there.. Get your basic bolton's done first so you can best support the heads/cam later and whatever else you wanna do.

Since you are a a4 a stall is the best mod out there for you right now and will be needed if you wanna run any decent size cam anyway...

Edit: A stall will negatively affect your in town MPG though but locked on the hiway will be the same...
