Default Did Skunk2 ever make a cam for the d16a6?

I know his is fairly vague, but I have a small aluminum plaque on the inside of my engine bay thats from skunk2 and although I havent removed my valvecover (will do as soon as I get a chance), my car definitely feels like its got an aftermarket cam. I have had aftermarket cams in my bmw2002's in the past and my car feels similar to that. The pull from 4k to 6500 is very strong (it would keep pulling, but I shift at 6500). Compared to other si's mine feels diferrent in this sense. I'll check out my cam after I remove my valvecover. Hopefully there is a stamp on it so I can find out if its stock or not without having to measure the profile(s). So, ultimately the question is the one in the thread title and also, what products do these aluminum "stickers" come with?

PS: I dont have any skunk2 products under my hood (DC header and a CAI)

Thanks in advance.

yeah, the pinstriping on my old car gave me a dyno prove 5hp.
I was just wondering. I am still new to the honda world, so I am pretty ignorant when it comes to our cars. I have to say that I am very fond of the "revvy" nature of my car (kind of like my old ae86 and e30 318is) . I am trying to figure out why I have a skunk2 plaque in my engine compartment when there are no visible skunk2 products on my car...mystery.

When bolt-ons are just too complicated stick-ons are where it's at!

Its actually a rare little specimen of an e30. It's a 318is. They only made them in 1991. They came with a DOHC 16v 1.8 with tubular headers, sodium filled valves, forged crank, adjustable cam sprockets, 4.10 LSD, and m3 suspension all from the factory! I loved this car, but sold it to buy my ae86 at the time. I've been messing around with beemers for a long time though. mostly 2002's. Like this one:

2002's have a very boost friendly little engine too.....fun cars.

But um, the skunk2 sticker is just that.

No parts for the A6 from them.
