only bad thing is the flycutting of the pistons, but I hear it isn't too hard to do.

ETP's all the way. They will outflow anything (11 degree valve angle) and have less cross sectional area than both other heads listed. That with an EDC cam will easily get you to 440+ in an a4 and 475+ on an m6 with the proper boltons.

Plus if this is on stock cubes that X4 aint gonna fit with milled 205's as it would be in your best intentions to get the static compression up with that setup.

Just check the dyno section for ETP graphs.

i would go with the LG-afr heads w/x4 cam. i have the LG-afr's w/ a x3 cam,but will switch to the x4 in spring. the set up is a killer at the track .
