If in doubt, talk to Alcon Direct.

I went to the factory last week in Tamworth. Strictly speaking, they are not open to the public, but were nothing more than extremely helpful.

They have a rather rapid old RS6 which one of the staff uses partly as a development car. This runs the advantage kit (same as E46) and they also swear by the RS29s for road and track.
