what kind of work are you going to do to get more RPMs? installing a standalone?
to answer the question, no it isn't a plug and play deal, the wiring is different, it can be done with some effort though. keep in mind the coolant temp is a 3 stage unit and not as accurate as the S4 also.

not without re-wiring the plugs
Other than that, yes it will work.

you will need like a new ecu too because you have a rev limiter

you just contradicted yourself and answered correctly but still didn't get it therefore you are a dumbass.
