Is it too big for what? Too big for a daily driver? Maybe, thats a subjective question. IMO with a good tune it should be plenty streetable. My cam is bigger and in a A4 and I could DD it if I had to. You should make ~400 hp.

Get it tuned, and it won't be too big for anything.

Edit: Make good power with ceramic coated header?

Didn't you know, big cams only make power on stainless headers.
j/k, so long as they aren't shorties it'll be fine on power.
