Audi : *check engine light*
Car: *No engine*
Audi : Bro WTF !!!
But it has engine
@@martinmilata232 Well.. A engine with no/faulty mass air flow sensor will also give a check engine light. And my friend, it was just a joke 😂
@@martinmilata232 it's not an engine it's a motor
@@martinmilata232 Than you probably don't know what is the difference between engine and motor.
But it has the Tesla brain, so it will never say check engine,you unintelligent person! Did you even pay attention to the video?
"Audi E-tron team wants to know your location"
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂👍
Hahaha
Yes....because the owner is too noisy.
They don't have to '-'
LOL!!
There should be a Tesla laying around with an Audi engine.
that would be horrific
Oh a V8 Tesla 😍
There is. Search it in UA-cam. Maybe not an Audi engine but someone put a big lump engine in a Tesla.
😂
Personally i want to put a semi truck engine is a pick up truck like an f150 and take the bed off then lay the engine there and build the trunk around it to see what it would do to the truck
I’m not an expert but I’d say fully discharged it’s 0 horsepower
🤔
Which technically is less 🤓
and i would say empty gas tank is 0 horsepower
No
How many horsepower has fuel car without fuel ?? 🤔
The starter has between 2 and 3 horsepower.
Hey,I got an ideas. How about take your car to Audi car service? Haha
Tell em you got engine problem.
BugsBunny007 😂😂😂😂 they will open the hood what the fuck going on here 😂😂😂
How fast it go?? You tried?
Lmfaooo
BugsBunny007 HAHAHAHHAH 😂😂
Yes. Just…yes.
Good Job, now put that old V8 Audi engine into Tesla.
:-D
🤣🤣🤣🤣yeah right
Doug DeMuro
I love how he said high mileage engine lol 20 thousand miles
It looks like this Audi has V8 electric engine
David Stevenson 200 thousand miles
This crazy to me. By far the most impressive part of this to me is just mating the motor ECU to the Audi ECU. The amount of expertise it must have required to complete that. Maybe I'm overestimating the feat but wow that sounds tedious
That sounds complex but it isn't that hard as it sounds. As they have mentioned you need to record can bus messages. They you need to examine that and learn how two different can buses are communicating with modules. In the next step you need to make custom micro computer which would translate messages from one can bus system to another.
This is big
Imagine these guys build their own electric motor and start a company swapping engines to electric motors.
This is fkn big if they think out of the box
Love this 👍👍
Keep it up guys 🔥🔥
This is a market Tesla should consider: the Tesla crate swap.
honestly, its emerging everywhere! and even as BMW guy, this car is 100x cooler than a traditional Tesla in my opinion :D
The only Problem for Tesla with this, is it still outsources its batteries from Panasonic and the up-charge from Panasonic to Tesla is already a huge problem for them. (Especially considering that 80% of their parts are created in house and the battery is one of the most single expensive components.)
But yes, agreed!
Dude for real though. I love my car and I love the idea of an electric car. I don’t care for all fancy novelty shit of the Teslas. I would love to just have the body of my choice with the heart of a Tesla.
Wonder why but there are many places that will do the electric conversion
@@vablo7198 agreed
Yes totally agree. My 08 Hummer or my 15 Jeep Wrangler with a Tesla swap would be fantastic
There are some seriously smart people in this world - kudos.
and humble.!!
Agreed. How do people know all this stuff?
@@COULDbWORSE1 UA-cam
Watched the whole video with my mouth opened :)
There’s some clever people out there!
actually man the real gurus
Imagine pulling up at charging station in gasoline Audi. Just like that lady tried to fill gasoline into her Tesla.
People taking phones to laugh and record...until you plug it in and moment of silence and subtle question in unison " Wha the flick "
Hahaha...... that's funny
God damn. Don’t know if this dude is a master mechanic or a computer genius lol
You nailed it right there. 😁🤔
Or both?
J Rivas my exact thoughts
Hes not from earth
these are agents from matrix
And here I am, having trouble assembling an IKEA closet.
You need to read the manual that comes with it.
I feel you bro
🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣
haha true
You need to change your brain
I have huge respect for people who start a difficult project without even knowing if or how it's gonna work.
And then they make it work.
Its kinda ackward when someone saw that V8 logo but doesnt hear the engine
But see the speed
Fuck that fast accel if you can't enjoy that V8 sound
Ghost V8
it's awkward how you spelled awkward 😂
@@ulqviorra If the sound is everything for you, put on a UA-cam video with the song of a V8 and don't leave your house.
Man i am so impressed. This guys doesnt realize that hes an entire engineering team. Even the infotainment screen. Damn brother ur insane!
Elon needs to hire him ASAP or team up
This guy needs to start a business to convert all types of cars to fully electric
He did...
You know how many ppl claim this can’t even be done, then people like EV west won’t even touch them. I have a genesis coupe bk1 and Jeep Wrangler unlimited, I would do this to my cars ASAP.
He would get my business
matt889 what shop in bc.
@@salt7582 huh. EV WEST wont do it?
It would cost a fortune
What a vision. Amazing project to undertake, so many skills and knowhow and expertise needed.
*This Russian so smart!!*
Who programmed that Audi/Tesla integration?!?!?!?
THAT is honestly what made your project possible!!!
hackers..
He said he has an aftermarket ECU that can integrate all the sensors
Größte Stärksten ya they have companies that make kits to do Tesla swaps in your car.
I did bro
That must have been guys of excellence 🤯🤩🤪😍😁
Charging your Audi at a Tesla charge station , I bet people be like WTF going on 🤔
He ditched the Tesla plug system xD
@@josephcreed7 put it in the gas tank lol
Audi tron #early owner 😎
He already thought about it and changed to Audi charging system. You should notice it if you watched the video.
Posting a comment before watching the video? 🤦♂️
Once again thanks for the project bro.
You don't know how much, how much I'm inspired from your project.
Much respect!!! Beautiful conversion. I would love to do this someday on my old Tundra... *sigh*
Hope I can actually see this beauty in person someday.
Cringe
This is a major technical achievement, especially emulating the Tesla software. There were two facts that were left out that viewers want to know - the max range and zero to sixty time.
Sam told me that the range is about 250 miles depending in how you drive it and 0-60 is 3.9
@@Deutscheautoparts how do you change oil in this Audi?
@@Deutscheautoparts What about the total cost for the project? :D
@@empirechannel7326 a lot
@@edwardvalivonis23 @10:39 he literally said doesnt need gas and oil
*Him explaining how he did it*
Me: Still not understanding a damn thing. 😐
Lmao same here bro
Me too.
ok good am not the only one and i fix gas cars all the time lol
Really ?
Maybe because your not educated?
Great job, very impressed. I love how you integrated the large display. Looked very OEM.
You can buy those displays on AliExpress look for Audi Android Tesla screen lcd
This isreally great work....Only passion can take you here...xcellent work
Thats a.. Sleeper which is not a sleeper but indeed it is sleeper, which is not a sleeper?
levi leviko thats sleepy, electric moto. no exhaust sound.
E sleeper? Lol
This one is awake😳😳
U kind of got it right
It's a sleeper under influence
Seriously you guys are geniuses, I've seen a tesla swap before always impressive but keeping the quattro system too 👏. Crazy machine .
very impressive, knowledgeable and intelligent. the fact that they were able to create the things needed is amazing. i need to do this to my g35.
Amazing! Beautiful! Excellent work!
Billionaire entreprenuere, right there, you dont need a Job sir, you are a problem solver, you need a good financial boost to become a billionaire... Respect
You heard it here first
@Nicholas Walter the Arabs should begin to make good savings, time is up for oil.. The world is going green..
Dumsani simelane absolutely spot on
@@duffydon1741 yeah everyone should switch to electro and show those oil comps the middlefinger
a lot of people do. actually.
they jail broke the software!!! it's like they got a Tesla Emulator running on a Audi PC amaaaaaaaaaaaaazing!!!!! 😍
As a software developer that was probably the hardest part along with the custom parts. Monitoring the network traffic and then getting it to translate into Audi 'language' is damn impressive. I'll bet if packaged into a SDK it's probably worth more than the car. Unfortunately, Tesla will probably come down hard with lawsuits afterwards. For those wanting to replicate or do their own, don't underestimate the software skills required to do this project.
Yeah I would like more details on that very interesting process there I’m sure I would watch an hour long video about that
@@abdelgonzalez8430 Yup...easily the hardest part of the whole project.
Audi gene in it will still make it break down. First electrical car with a permanent Check light.
I bet it runs on Java
Very impressive. Thanks for making the video on this cool car
He is a hero. This is literally amazing
You also kept the quattro?? Man!!!! Expect a call from Audi soon . You are a genius!!!
A true Genius even, he makes things happen at ease 😁
cedric Dobré Hey I enjoy your content I wouldn’t mind if you check mine out and maybe we can do a collaboration
Quattro is just awell engineered differential system. No different from doing an EV conversion directly on a standard differential. Except it's actually easier because he got to reuse the engine bay instead of having to weld the motor to the frame.
cedric Dobré his tech Sergei too...💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼🤗🤗🤗🤗
He explains how simple it is himself, motor delivers power thru the existing diff. He says it himself
Jail-broken to the next level!
Audesla...🤔🤗😏
Great job, guys! Respect! Hello from Russia to Sergei)
These two guys are at another level . Wow
"Its like a regular car boosting it to 60 fps" Word bro.
That's how you know he's more nerdy about computers and electronics rather than cars which is totally fine lol
Did he mean PSI?
60 psi
You should change the v8 badge to a v0 lol
V-Electric
V-400 for 400 volts, that's the voltage the drive train uses.
VNone
Vnought
V-Spark
Thank you for sharing this information.
These Tesla Swaps are Incredible. I cant get enough of them.
Elon musk: Sam, you’re hired.
Ray Donovan right....
Alyssa Price your*
Sergei is fired, not Sam. That blogger only paid for the party
Naw. He will remove their supercharging
@@Bustedfuture * hired
Amazing work... it's so difficult to do a conversion people don't even realise. But it's so worth it
Dude thats a crazy conversion! Great job!
Absolutely awesome! Well done gentlemen.
Him explaining
Me just nodding without understanding a thing
Just so impressed
Looks like he's carrying a concert speaker in the back seats lol
Or a big subwoofer box
BIG🙉BOOM BOX😎🤩👍
Finally some good news in 2020!
Super clean swap! Never thought someone would do this 🤯
Amazing project ! Very smart guys !!
Beyond impressive. Someone in Ingolstadt needs to hire this guy ASAP.
Nooo cause he'd ruin ever other audi with an vacuum cleaner engine!!!!!
Why isn't this guy working for Tesla's Engineering Team? Bright af
F that. Start his own business. Blow the doors off of the stockers
Yeahh, these guys should open a custom eCar business. An Audi A2 have a great aerodynamic or my dream, a porsche 356 spyder as a eCar, with portable batteries like in the gogoro scooter ( www.gogoro.com/gogoro-network/ ) then the car can life 100 years 😃😃😃
this is quite basic when you study computer engineering.
@@sefyboy7183 lolz
@Iskandar Ibrahim What? The only thing I don't understand is your backward comment. I'm doing my master's in computer engineering. I know a thing or two about circuits lmao
Finally got to see the face of the edge motors genius that has been making videos for years
Awesome work man...I need something similar for my 2006 A4
Now put the Audi V8 into the Tesla
YESSS
Clever! :)
Thats a joke, right?
no

Audi use the slogan “Vorsprung Durch Technik” which means “Advancement Through Technology”
You have literally out Audi’d Audi..🤪
LOL!
John McMahon Audi has an Etron
@@johnnywood8082 which is probably worse in mileage than this Audi! :D :D
This is ridiculous! Love it! HAHAHHA
Yes but translated that means cheating diesel technology
Great video.
Good work, now only thing to worry about is dealing with the brake dust and replacing rotors & brake pads with tires.
👍🏻
Wow in really admire the people that have the knowledge to do this
Straight Fire!!!! That's hot, the fact it's still AWD is so incredibly insane!!!!! Absolutely amazing build.

Crazy cool conversion
My monotone boy over here, not even labeling buttons, I love it! Total mad science!
I have seen swaps. But hot damn this is very impressive. He definitely gets three stripes
This is amazing. Human ingenuity at it's very best!
This is one of the dopest builds I ever seen
He has a very good understanding of how Teslas work. Well done!
Dude, you gotta post how you figured out the CAN bus stuff and the Dash Screen that you are using. This will be great for those that want to toss out their engines for Tesla power!! I know Damien Maguire uses a lot of Tesla parts and such but again it would be great for us that don't have time to diagnose the CAN messages and have something that is close to Plug-n-Play. Great job and look forward to any updates and improvements!! Put Tesla in a Truck!!
Andy Morris look into mrs electronics in Dayton Ohio. They have cambus translators that people use to do swaps with mostly ls swaps but a lot of ev stuff now to. To translate one manufacturers can to another system. They also can do software for the programming if the budget is there
Awesome project!, I talked with Elon in 2008 about making an E-Supra project, buy he got richer and I got busy...lbvs. No matter how fast, I will always miss that engine sound.
Don't ruin a Supra there a dying breed sadly
@@celicadude4344 i hope the supra dies tbh, both the mk4 and mk5, that way there are no more retarded fans

Excellent work 👍
You have my like! I cant give you more but. . You deserve milions of likes
Thats what i call a project, Good Job man, love it!!! I just love the amount of mods that had to done and the way you did it! It makes a really unique car, and you did it without a team of enginners
Audi drives by so fast
No sound
Me: *CONFUSION 8000*
I AM CONFUSION
When you look around there are a lot of hidden geniuses like these guys. Amazing...
Nice job! Very creative!
I wish I had the money to pay this guy to build me a Tesla powered GTI.
Carlos G YOU TOOK THE WORDS RIGHT OUT OF MY...letters right off of my...well I guess I’m technically typing on a screen not a keyboard...well, so yeah virtual keyboard...YEAH ALL ELECTRIC GTI TO SHAME THE E-GOLF LETS DO IT
Its called an GTE then haha
Thanks for the idea 😯
I would rather have Rs 3 hybrid fwd 5 cylinder. Electric rwd
Why would you want to drive an electric car? I'm just curious
Get rid of the v8 emblem homie lol get a E-audi tag
Just put on E-tron and boom! Done!
E Tron!
@Yoosuf-Ali Timol The poor fool that dares to race this car...
Sundeep Gill I would rather say get rid of the electric engine.
do something with your life homie
Bro great job . Nice and clean
You did a great job on this video
This guy could be bullshiting everything and id still believe it
😂 I know right. Stuff is going straight over my head
I know just enough about the workings of electric cars that I can confirm he's not bullshitting at all. This car is legit and it's freaking amazing.
Anyone else thinking "hey what a fun diy project, I could do that" right up until he said we cut the motor in half and created our own custom gear reduction motor 😕🙁☹️
If you find an industrial gear company they will cut a gear for you or even work that out for you.
I felt the same when he talked about making the Tesla software think everything was OK and then doing the same with the Audi and then making them happy together
@@1empyre1life Audi software and aftermarket support is pretty big, thats why they got all those Tune stages of GTiS. Definitely you should know what you're doing, not plug n play lol
That’s really the easiest part of this. Getting the Audi ECU to adapt to the new system is what this is all anout
I though wow would I be able to pull that off with a bastard file.
Awesome! Great job!
Nice job guys. Nice & hard project, well done.
I tried to understand your explanation of how it works but my brain exploded. 🤯
So simple, but yet it's so complicated!
This is seriously amazing work! The work that went into figuring out the electrical and all the components....to tie everything together.. Was probably mind blowing.
Well done I really hope you get better and better to the point where you can do it to any car and teach it to others
There's some real clever kiddies out there!
Kiddie? He’s like 30
This is so dope. Can tell alot of time and effort went into the build. Much respect
One week later this guy was offered a contract to work for hyundai..
You mean hummer
You mean Tesla
Dude nailed it, Tech/engineers are the new mechanics.
super interesting video, congrats on your swap, enjoy your unique car 👍
Extreme engineering. You guys are phenomenally talented.
Brilliant! Loving the S5 body but actually E! You guys are geniuses! Here I am converting my old PC speaker to a wireless Bluetooth! 😁
