Default V8s Upgrades

Hello, I am new to this forum. I have a 2015 F-type V8S and I am struggling to find an upgrade list on this site. Maybe I am just a horrible forum searcher. Can anyone point me in the direction of a thread or have any quick list of upgrades out there. I am also struggling to find any what seem to be reliable websites that sell tuners and what not.

Thanks for the help.

If you haven't discovered that VelocityAP is the most recommended tuner here, and highly regarded, then you really are a horrible forum searcher :/

As for other upgrades, you'd need to be more specific about what you looking for. Suspension? Bling? Audio?

Yes I have seen that, the VAP tuner I'm assuming. Where do people purchase it? And I am looking performance mainly. I am very mechanically inclined so I'm curious about things such as air filters pulley upgrades and other items in that category.

Here’s a list of the performance upgrades:

Tune: VAP
Lowering springs: VAP, H&R (Autoanything), KW(?)
Unhinged Shortshifter: VAP
Rotors: Wortec, others
Brake pads: Porterfield (VAP), EBC
Tires: Michelin PS4 (TireRack, Costco, others)
Supercharger heatexchanger: Paramount

There’s a start at least.

Welcome - I am in Charlotte. There is a Jaguar Club here in NC but most members have older cars. I think only about 3-5 of us have the F-Types. Good luck with the tuning.
