The 9A produced less power than the KR because it had softer profile cams to go with the cat converter that was fitted.

I put the complete Audi engine in and then just swapped the cams afterwards.

As golfvr6-is-back said, the Audi 6a/Passat 9a 16v engines had softer cam profiles and a cat which gave less power and emissions.
