Just an FYI. I had my S2 FHC converted to the Trips SU set up. I went about it by purchasing used parts from a well stocked seller in DE. My local Jag mechanic installed and tuned all of the components. I had the exhaust manifolds ceramic coated in satin black locally. My mechanic was aware that I was always complaining of heat transfer into the cabin and had installed double layered heat shielding in my cabin last year, so he suggested and I purchased two new down-pipes in stainless steel and had those ceramic coated in satin silver. Additional work was to have the front suspension reconfigured since my car was way too low in front - adjusting of the torsion bar on the passenger side brought the front end up 3 inches which was significant and no new parts were required. Finally, I purchased a set of 4 Vredestein radials from Tire Track, which in my opinion have made a world of difference in handling and noise reduction compared to the much pricier Avon‘s.

Shout out to my my mechanic, Ross, nearby in Morrisville, PA at Jaguar Specialists; fair, honest and a mechanical wizard! Also, shout out to the ceramic coaters, Bonehead Performance in Feasterville, PA. Incredible shop, fast turnaround!

Happy motoring to all!
