Getting a cam that will make 400 rw through an a4 and still passing a sniffer test will be a very tall order.

and thats y im asking i was not sure if i could do that and port out the heads and keep it street legal(emmisions wise), even with it going through 2 cats on the x pipe, my other thought was get it as close as i could matching power for emmisions and then add a little go go juice. but is the CC306 able to pass the sniffer or am i better off sticking with the CC305/CC503
