RS4 Cams for sale???
Does anyone happen to have RS4 Intake Cams for sale and or where is the best place to purchase them? Also willing to ship to Australia? I have heard a bit of talk about the 2.8 cams being the same as the RS4 one's, is this true?
Any help is greatly appreciated

The p/ns are the same -- that's why cams are about the cheapest RS4 parts you can buy. As for the
heads -- there are no exact matches. The suffixes don't match.
The RS4 pass bank is: 078 103 068 BK
and the Driver bank : 078 103 067 BK

Not exactly. You need to clarify "Euro" is the same. Let me tell you why...
You are looking at European spec cams only. The US spec cams are totally different.
Truths:
1) All VW/Audi 30v V6 Euro gas engines (2.4, 2.7T, 2.8) use the same intake cams, which are native to Euro emissions. There is no such thing as "RS4 cams" in terms of exclusivity. They are merely Euro spec intake cams designed for Euro emissions testing. They have more lift than US spec units.
2) All VW/Audi 30v V6 gas engines world wide use the same exhaust cams.
3) The US spec 2.8 intake cams are not the same as Euro spec intake cams.
4) The US spec 2.8 intake cams are not the same as the US spec 2.7T intake cams.
5) Bonus: all the 30v heads use the same valves, there are no "special" valves for the RS4 heads. The exhaust valves are all sodium filled. I don't know who the heck dreamed that RS4 valve story up, but it's BS.
6) Bonus #2: all the valves in the 30v heads are really 1.8T valves. You awake now?
I hope that clears it up. This is the last time I'll be telling people what is what in regard to 30v heads...

NOT WRONG - I never said the were the same as the N. American 2.8 30v engine -- they are the same as
the euro 2.8 (the NA in his post I took as reference to naturally aspirated, not US). Look at the engine codes.
I'm no more wrong then you are
