Well, that really depends on what you want it to do.

But overall, yeah, I would say that's a pretty good cam.

i would like to get around 400hp at the rear. I have a k&n induction system, ported TB, longtubes with custom exhaust, and a 3000 stall vig TC

A4 are not kings of the dyno, so I wouldn't worry too much about #s.

Get a goal for the track, you'll probably reach that 1st

I agree with 2002 Trans Am. An M6 would hit 400 RWHP with that cam, but I think it might be a tall order for a stalled A4 ... maybe with heads, but otherwise probably not. It would make a good street/strip cam tho ...

those r XE lobes, not XE-R... u'd probably get about 375-385rwhp with stock heads, and about 400-410 with good heads
