yes
and if thats the case just go ahead and purchase a aftermarket a6 cams (more aggressive profile) either that or consider the mini-me conversion

Do the MPFI swap, and get Exospeed to do a regrind on your cam.
The d15 head is keyed differently on how its lined up timing wise.

Exactly which is due to a shorter block height; an adjustable cam gear is a must to allow timing to be run correctly.
