Nope....


S4
Engine Type: V6 four-stroke spark-ignition, five values per cylinder, light alloy cylinder heads, three inlet valves, sodium-cooled, each cylinder head with double overhead camshafts (DOHC)

Pointing out the fact that it's DOHC, and our 12V are SOHC.

Pointless... S4 Camshafts are designed for better flow to the Turbochargers... You putting them in your car would not only be pointless, but more than likely you'd lose power.

That makes sense in my mind, but I could very well be wrong. That's just my opinion.

Think you'll probably have to call Crower and get a custom set made... Keep in mind they charge about $600-$1,000 per camshaft they have to design and produce.
