Audi R8 6-Speed Manual Conversion
6-Speed Manual Conversion for the Audi R8. This conversion is designed for discerning Audi owners seeking to transform their R8 into a true driver’s car with the engagement, control, and timeless feel of a traditional manual transmission. Our system is engineered to replace the factory R-Tronic automated manual transmission experience with a true 6-speed manual configuration that delivers a more connected, mechanical, and rewarding driving experience.
At EAG, we engineer each conversion with a focus on precision, structural integrity, and long-term reliability. We utilize high-quality materials including billet aluminum, treated stainless steels, CNC-machined components, and purpose-built hardware to ensure exceptional fit, function, and durability. The result is a thoroughly re-engineered driving experience designed to feel refined, authentic, and worthy of the Audi R8 platform.
Pre-Order Program
This product is currently available for pre-order only. Early buyers may reserve the Audi R8 6-Speed Manual Conversion at a special pre-order price of $19,990.00. Upon official launch, the price of the kit will increase to $24,990.00. A $5,000 deposit is required to reserve your place in line and secure early-buyer pricing. The Audi R8 6-Speed Manual Conversion is scheduled to launch in September 2026. Pre-order customers will receive priority placement for upcoming production and installation scheduling as the program becomes available.
In-House Conversion Only
This conversion is currently offered as an in-house service only. Due to the complexity of the system integration, electronics calibration, chassis-specific setup, and final validation required, we do not offer DIY kits for the Audi R8 at this time. The vehicle must be shipped or delivered to EAG’s facility in Austin, Texas for completion, where our team performs the entire conversion process from start to finish in-house to ensure proper fitment, calibration, safety, and final quality control.
Labor and Installation
Installation labor for the Audi R8 6-Speed Manual Conversion is $10,000.00 and is completed exclusively at the EAG facility in Austin, Texas. Because this program is offered as an in-house-only conversion, all labor, setup, integration, calibration, and final testing are performed by EAG as part of the complete conversion process.
Unmatched Driving Experience
Take full control of your Audi R8 with a conversion engineered to deliver a more connected and rewarding driving experience. Replacing the factory R-Tronic system with a true manual setup transforms the character of the car, giving the driver complete command over every shift. The result is a more engaging, analog, and visceral connection between driver and machine—something the factory automated system simply cannot replicate.
Engineered and Calibrated for Your Vehicle
Each conversion is carefully developed and installed to meet the highest standards. Our technicians ensure seamless mechanical and electronic integration while preserving the performance, drivability, and character expected from the Audi R8 platform. We dedicate substantial time to research, development, and vehicle-specific calibration to ensure each conversion is tailored to the chassis and configuration of the individual car. Safety, reliability, and drivability are our top priorities throughout the process.

Turn-Key Conversion Solution
EAG offers a complete turn-key approach for each in-house conversion. Upon arrival, every vehicle is thoroughly documented and inspected. We evaluate the vehicle as a whole and review any additional maintenance, service items, or recommended repairs while the car is in our care. This allows owners to address not only the manual conversion itself, but also other mechanical, cosmetic, or preventative items at the same time—resulting in a more complete and properly sorted final product.
