I'm pretty sure I can't assume the difference is equal to the difference in overall lengths in the cars.

RS6 is 55mm (2.16 in.) shorter than the A6 4.2.

Default I'm pretty sure it's over an inch. Can't give you the exact measurement though. You should ask

one of the guys in the RS6 forum to measure a support for you.

With proper supports, yes. The exhaust will stick out a bit more though.
