Should hold up fine. Is the transmission rebuilt? 4,000 might be too loose for your setup. See what others are running with similar engine mods. For the swap you will need the crossmember, shifter, shift cable, wiring (either a different harness or modify yours), pcm tuned so the speed-o works, the pedals, torque arm mount bracket (clamshell) is different, and you'll need a flexplate. That should pretty much cover it. Also, a transmission cooler (unless you run a stock style one through an A4 radiator). Oh, and the A4 center console insert piece

I agree dirty... I say sell your m6 car and find an auto car. I've heard of the switch to an m6 car from an auto not the otherway around. I'd sell it or trade dirty.
