I have the honor of making the first comment on this video. Outstanding work! The way you record and explain everything is awesome. You made this look so easy but I know it was alot of work. Best video I have ever seen covering the pulleys and tuning. I am excited to see what else you do with this monster in future videos.
Amazing car yes. Ive had 3 Jags 2were XFR both 4.2 and 5.0 variants. Both heavily modified. First you did most of the right things to the car however you will not see 650 to the wheels but to the crank possibly. 2nd. Your cooling is way too inadequate. You need a higher flow SC water pump along with the ice box…also methanol injection and a full 3” exhaust. 3rd i noticed you heated the old pulley while trying to remove it….very bad. You probably compromised your SC bearing by heating it as such. Not sure why the car has 255 on the rear stock is 285 but you can run 315 with rims. Last. If you want 700HP you need a ported TB and a SC porting ideally with SC venom cooling kit. If you want to go full out and run 700-750 HP (crank)add on a chiller killer thats what i did to mu XKR175. It ran a best of 11.0 @ 131 … stock ps4s rubber. Good luck you are on the right path ! Fix your cooling if nothing else!! Ps) Remember to change the engine oil every 5,000 Km or face the dreaded timing chain tensioner. I put 170,000 on my 5.0 XFR Zero issues with all the above mods and more. Dyno 684HP no 1/4 yet.
@@xaviergallegos8635 ….smaller upper pulley, high flow intercooler water pump. Ported, polished supercharger. 2.5” full exhaust with 400 cel cats. Meth injection Larger intercooler, a good tune. Will give you 500HP+ easy
New subscriber here, im from the uk and have been daily driving a 2014 xfr for 2 years, truly great cars and so so reliable, all thats happened to mine is a rear light cluster went out and thats it. im tempted to tune mine when the warranty runs out in december. your video skills are excellent by the way, you present really really well. keep up the good work
@@Code3media199 very noticeable difference in acceleration feels allot better, and an added better gas mileage at ab 80 I can sit at around 1200 - 1400 rpms
Thought about going that route, but ended up doing some other cooling upgrades since the heat exchanger upgrade is quite pricey! Ended up going with an ice box, and a second IC pump instead
Awesome video! Not an easy car to work on. Do you find you get all the oil out when pumping it? I’ve heard guys say there’s usually 1L left. Just got a pump myself and am curious if it works just as well as going from the drain plug.
Thanks man! Honestly, when I swapped the gearbox it was much worse. On this car specifically, there isn’t actually a drain plug, only an oil level sensor, that hole is made for oil changes, and is the only option.😅 the pump works really well though.
@@Code3media199 yeah my XJ has the same issue. No dipstick. Just the oil level sensor. I just got the car in September and my garage did the oil change and actually removed the plug and all the under carriage plastic to do it. Told them they could just suck it out annnd they also overfilled it so dad and I are going to be doing oil changes ourselves this fall (he has an F-Type)
Such a shame they didn't make a XF V8 estate other then the full on XFRS.. as theirs only 37 XFRS sportbrakes world wide & their pretty much an SVR making them quite expensive.. I do love the XFR though
GREAT VIDEOS !!! I have a 2010 XFR ,,, All stock - But sooo much fun . I need a bushing kit for front and rear ,,, Where did you find your bushings for the front ?
I got the front ones I needed on rock auto, But if you want the reaaally good stuff, look up powerflex USA. Their stuff is FANTASTIC, and big upgrades over stock.
I have not, the charge coolers aren’t upgradeable, and the heat exchanger upgrades are very expensive. I opted to add an ice box, a second IC pump, separate the radiator and ic systems, and that did a lot. I’m sure at some point I will end up adding a bigger heat exchanger, but for now the next step is a killer chiller setup I’m thinkin!
I have a 2011 XF 5.0 Supercharged (with a XFR front end and hood) and I have a lower pulley that I haven't had installed yet because I was told I need to get a tune right after I change my pulley. Any information on tuning my Jag?
Yes sir, you will need a tune right away, else it’s gonna run terrible. Before getting it tuned I would recommend some cooling mods as well. These cars suffer very badly from heat soak stock! If you live somewhere where you can do a decat, that helps a ton, along with adding a resivoir and separating the intercooler from the radiator system. If you stay tuned, I have added an icebox setup, and there will be an upload soon dedicated to that! The more of these things that you can have done before you get the tune done, the happier you will be with the results. I had mine tuned by VAP, as they are known to be one of the best, but there are a few other tuners for this platform that are awesome as well.
Yessir. The only reason it hasn’t been back on the dyno yet, is just because it is currently in process of being fixed from hitting the coyote! It will be back on the dyno very soon.
Coming soon! If you watch the next video, the night before my second dyno appointment, I smoked a coyote. There is an update video dropping in the next day or two!
if this doesnt make people want a xfr i dont know what will

Thanks again man. I really appreciate the feedback, it is very encouraging! If you have any criticism or suggestions, I am all ears. Thank you!

I got 4.2 any ideas ?

Larger intercooler, a good tune. Will give you 500HP+ easy
Subscribed, I'm getting a 8 speed one of these next year so watching with interest
Thanks man! saw the comment on PT.1, so far the car is becoming very mental for very cost effective. thank you for the support!
@Code3media199 getting a Jag XF next year.
Boutta boost it to make 1000hp

Thank you very much! I appreciate the support. You definitely should, wakes these cars right up!
Love the way you explain things. Great video!
Thank you! Appreciate your time for watching!
I just recently sold my 2011 for the newer model with the 8 speed its a beast!
Sweet! How much difference do you notice with the 8 speed?
@@Code3media199 very noticeable difference in acceleration feels allot better, and an added better gas mileage at ab 80 I can sit at around 1200 - 1400 rpms
Good tune. But I'd consider getting the larger intercooler, to help the sc run more effectively.

No kidding. It is too bad they don’t make more wagons. I would 10x rather have a sportbrake.

How much would you charge to do my set up I can’t do all that lol I just need upper pulley lower pulley with remap
Hey! Where do you live?
Hey did u ever end up getting it on the dyno with the tune and pulley and if so how much was it putting down after?
Verrrry soon! Keep an eye for the next few videos with that car!
Now since you did both pullies did you upgrade the charge intercooler as well?
I have not, the charge coolers aren’t upgradeable, and the heat exchanger upgrades are very expensive. I opted to add an ice box, a second IC pump, separate the radiator and ic systems, and that did a lot.

@@Code3media199 nice! Yeah sorry I meant the heat exchanger
I have one !😊 2010
Nice! How do you like it?
Question, technically would it be the same gen 5.0 thats in my 2011 jaguar XKR? Theoretically could i get the same power results with mine
Yessssir!

Ok is it necessary to do the cooling mods etc first or can I go ahead and change the pulley and tune it before that? @@Code3media199
Do you plan on dynoing the car again to check how much power you gained
Yessir. The only reason it hasn’t been back on the dyno yet, is just because it is currently in process of being fixed from hitting the coyote! It will be back on the dyno very soon.
Just curious how many miles you had on the car and what year
Its a 2011, with 140,000 KM.
No dyno figures?
Coming soon! If you watch the next video, the night before my second dyno appointment, I smoked a coyote. There is an update video dropping in the next day or two!
And gearbox ?
I replaced the gearbox when I bought the car before I started making videos. It wasn’t too bad, and the used 60xxx km replacement was pretty cheap.
Sorry but I have to give a ' D ' for videography. You need an experienced cameraman .
