Default RS6 brake system on 4.2L...possible ??

Hello,

Is it possible to install the front braking system (calliper + disc) from a RS6 on a A6 4.2L ??
-- Need some modification?
-- Simply "Plug and Play"?

In advance thank you your observations, comments and personal testing.

Default Some RS6 owners aren't happy with their brakes.

Since the four small pads easily overheat, they switch to a MOVIT caliper. One RS6 reviewer melted his brakes in one fast day on the autobahn. See this <a href="http://www.rs6.com/forum/showthread.php?s=f733c8512acd0e0c8d29b49bf6c6594d& threadid=111&highlight=brakes">RS6.com Thread</a>.
