Because you have a pretty nice to Tune to begin with, I would recommend buying the Speertech adapter harness, copying your tune (unless Speed Inc can replicate it free) and then having your PCM transmission segment swapped to an A4 setup. That's how I've done it in the past. But, there is a danger in losing the tune so whichever way you go I highly recommend you get a known good copy of that tune!
Have you studied the stickies here? When you do, ya have to dig deep to get all the info. Some guys swap pedals, some don't. Some guys do torque arm relocations, some don't. Some will swap radiators and run a stock cooler, some want aftermarket... point is there are bunches of options to consider.
I've had guys bring me their cars from as far as 13 hrs from here to have me do their swaps. I've done my share of them. Feel free to give me a shout if you get in a bind along the way....

That's awesomeness! If you'll save my number in your phone I will walk you through the issues you have when you get into it.
And, if you get to the point you need that unit freshened up I have a cool plan for you as well. All you have to do is call me and I'll support that transmission as best I can from Dallas.
How long has that unit been in the other car... do you know?
