Default I would think the rear springs might be too stiff for a sedan..
If I remember correctly, the Avant has stiffer rates in the rear, to compesate for the bigger 'boot'. So, I think you won't bollox it up, whatever the hell that means! You might make it oversteer a little, but that's not really a bad thing on a quattro. ;-)
