The one for the B6/B7 S4 should work on the RS4. Contact APR to be sure.

I was thinking about this the other day....I don't think the RS4 needs it.

at least not with the stock power output.

RS4 uses a forward engine mount akin to the RS6, not a snub mount like the S4...

So there are no products to replace this forwards fitted engine mount. Actually it uses the same forward mount as an RS6 with an RS4 unique bracket. Cross tube is not present separately on the RS4 as with the S4 as well, different front core as well.

You shouldn't need a snub, the 3 engine mount setup is quite secure.

Cheers,
