Manual Audi C7 S6 - First Drive

Our Manual Swapped Audi S6 is finally driving! After 2 months of ups and downs, the car finally hit the pavement and moved under it's own power. We had a lot of downtime with driveshaft sourcing and rectifying issues related to hard errors and wiring the canbus, but it all worked out! We appreciate all of the helping hands, and work done behind the scenes.

Manual Audi C7 S6 - First Drive

[@Fasteddiebreakshearts]

Nothing like a sweet sounding V8 with 3 pedals …savetheManuals

[@tgkmotorsport]

yea now gotta get it to sound more like a v8 and less raspy haha

[@lboydevine4802]

That's so sick I got a b8.5 s4 with that 6 speed and I love it

[@tgkmotorsport]

nice! had a B8.5 myself before the s6! haha

[@dwoah30]

Awesome build!!

[@tgkmotorsport]

thanks!

[@AUDIDOIT]

Well done mate, awesome. 🙌🏻

[@mc1738]

Huge accomplishment. The ecu programming alone is a feat

[@tgkmotorsport]

thanks!

[@tannpants9532]

You are the man! Great work, mate. It's always been a dream of mine to have a manual transmission 4.0t car, I really appreciate you documenting the whole process. Keep up the good work! Lets see you do the 4.0t swap into that Avant with a manual for the next project. ;)

[@tgkmotorsport]

thanks! and we will see! Im not sure what we are gonna do with that next. Since i have the 4.0 Manual in here i kinda wanted to do something different with the wagon. LS, 07K, BARRA? not really sure yet haha

[@tgkmotorsport]

The Avant might see a different power plant.... Time will tell!

[@brendanmccarthy8204]

And the second will be my car! 😂 I’m shipping it to you asap

[@tgkmotorsport]

ok!

[@rkurt93]

[@tgkmotorsport]

[@tl7338]

Elite.

[@10alvahu]

Amazing!
Just Amazing

[@nissejarnet]

Nice!

[@robert.rester8049]

This thing is wicked, what brand is your steering wheel? I love the way it looks.

[@tgkmotorsport]

OEM TTRS Wheel.

[@harp_attack]

I’m a few days late on this but congrats dude! What a journey it has been. Super jealous. 😬

[@fredwilliams7893]

Amazing! Great work man! I could only imagine the amount of fabrication that went into this! By the way what steering wheel is that?

[@tgkmotorsport]

Appreciate it! Truthfully 90% of it has been plug and play haha. and TTRS!

[@projectLSaudiA4]

Great job! There's a table in the ECU for gearbox type (3D126A Codiermatrix für Codierzelle Getriebeart), which might help with rev hang if there’s an option for manual? I'm sure you'll figure it out!

[@tgkmotorsport]

technically there is zero manual tables in the med17. we modified RLMNN and that got rid of the "rev hang" so when you let off the gas in neutral it just falls immediately. The only thing we havent figured out yet but got it way more tamed down since the video is the rev shooting past. But thats because nothings telling the ECU to reduce load. We should have that solved this weekend with adding more to the canbus module to fake an auto. Its all wired in just have to finish the software signals.

[@ansonathan]

💪💪🔥congratulations man!! 🎉 how’s the comfort level of the new seats??

[@tgkmotorsport]

Depends on the size of the person haha. They are way more comfy for me, but if your a bigger build its extremely tight because of the bolstering. Gonna actually do a whole video on them because i havent finished the drivers side converting it to power.

[@TRUCK07103]

Audi needs suggest bring back the manual transmission. Could you imagine how much fun the RS three or S3 would be in a manual transmission

[@pzlrsd]

awesome work! what screen is that for the MMI?

[@tgkmotorsport]

just a generic Aliexpress haha

[@ronderderian7004]

Tyler for president

[@tgkmotorsport]

start the campaign!

[@RS7evenSLDR]

I just want those brakes. LOL

[@menoke45]

What are you using for the flywheel & clutch?

[@tgkmotorsport]

OEM Ring gear out of a 3.0T Manual
Then flywheel and clutch are the clutchmaster 850 Series Twin disc Strapped Race Street

[@yourunknownapple]

What front rotors do you have on the car?

[@tgkmotorsport]

Our own custom ones. Took C8 RS6 OEM calipers and machined down the caliper to fit a bracket to fit onto the C7 hub. Then made custom tophats to seat on 420MM 2Piece rotors.

[@yourunknownapple]

@@tgkmotorsportnice. They almost look like Porsche surface coated rotors. I have a set of those rotors. Wondering if I could get them to fit my S6 lol.
