The AMS Gearworks Stage 1 DL800 Transmission is the ultimate OEM+ refresh for Audi R8 and Lamborghini Huracan owners looking to restore performance and reliability in naturally aspirated applications. Each build begins with a comprehensive disassembly, inspection, and cleaning process, including physical and digital fork position checks, mechatronic unit inspection, ring and pinion setup verification, and identification of any worn or damaged components. Our expert technicians then perform proprietary AMS internal transmission modifications to address common OEM failure points, replace all one-time-use hardware and seals, and install a new external filter and upgraded pan with integrated filtration. The gearbox is then fully reassembled to our exacting standards, followed by hydraulic system verification and a final fork position recheck. With factory-like drivability, enhanced durability, and faster turnaround than our competitors, the Stage 1 package offers peace of mind and long-term performance in a street-focused, cost-effective rebuild. Available with a comprehensive door-to-door service, the Gearworks program simplifies the upgrade process, leaving owners free to enjoy their high-performance vehicles with confidence.

Transportation & Logistics
As part of our AMS Gearworks DL800 build program, we offer a range of transport logistics options to make the upgrade process as seamless as possible. For customers who prefer to handle the gearbox removal themselves, we provide convenient shipping solutions to ensure safe and efficient delivery of your gearbox to our facility, where our expert technicians can begin the custom build. However, if you’d rather leave the entire process to us, we can arrange for full vehicle transport, providing a true door-to-door service. This option allows our team to take full responsibility for every aspect of the upgrade, from safely transporting your vehicle to our facility, to meticulously handling the gearbox removal, build, and reinstallation, and finally delivering your fully upgraded vehicle back to you.
