Hi All,

I saw on Instagram that VAP is starting the Black Friday Sales (finally!). Code is "BF2019" at checkout for 25%. Anyone else getting anything? Thinking about the Touring xpipe exhaust for my V6, but actually temping to get the quad pipes for the V8. Thoughts?

Cheers

 

Yess I’ve been waiting too!! I’m gonna be picking up the valvetronic v6 exhaust, crank pulley and tune. I was thinking about trying v8 quads too but I don’t think I can grab a valence right now and I was trying to find a sound clip of unhingds setup but I couldn’t find it (I swear I did before though).

 

For a sound clip of the VAP touring quads on a v6 with pulley and tune (inside the car, in dynamic, windows up) see https://www.facebook.com/topper.muller.7 though you have to scroll down a bit, the page is really just me annoying my kids. It is actually quite a bit louder with the windows down.

 

I'm holding out for 40%

 

Yeah, it’s on here somewhere. The sound reproduction doesn’t sound anywhere near as impressive as the real thing.

 

V8 tune order in!!

 

tune only for me on my v8 rwd - i'd be happy with the highest spec svr tune of this engine

i kinda cbb messing with pulleys

 

Wuss!

 

hahaha find me a pulley puller locally

i don’t want to hack the oe pulley off with a butter knife or however it’s done

 

Forget the SC pulley, go for a larger crank pulley instead!

 

Do we know how many hp are gained with the VAP crank pulley?

I don't see a number attributed to the pulley on their site.

 

Per vap website:
STOCK V6 BASE = 340BHP ----) CRANK PULLEY + TUNE 450BHP
STOCK V6S = 380BHP ----) CRANK PULLEY + TUNE 450BHP

W/O crank pulley
STOCK 340BHP ----) TUNED 416BHP

(also my bad if you were looking gain numbers of pulley without tune, I believe it is not advisable so they probably didn't list it for that reason)

 

Thanks for that, but I should have specified I was after the v8 numbers. The ad says the pulley fits the v8 but only lists v6 numbers!

 

ah i apologize, right after I posted that I thought "I wonder if he was asking about the v8"

"Jaguar's F-Type R is a powerful car, but more HP is always good!!! Jaguar's Project 7 & SVR already offer more power from the factory, we build upon this to achieve gains of 42RWHP (55BHP at the crank.) Our Crank Pulley adds additional power, taking final output to 640BHP. VelocityAP's custom setup was developed and tested in a dyno setting and then road tested to ensure not just big peak numbers but optimum drive-ability and seamless factory integration. "

 

Hmm.. I think I'll pull the trigger on the flashing tool so I can give my '14 V8S a bit of a power bump (unless someone here advises against it). Anyone know when the discount code expires?

 

Thread said end of the month.

Hesitant to pull the trigger on the V8 RWD Tune. Do I really NEED extra power? Tires keep spinning even on the stock software

 

This is what I was after - thanks!

 

You're confusing needs with wants ...

 

so I probably shouldn't but Im contemplating 200 cell cats for the v6, I ordered valvetronic exhaust and some other vap goodies, but does anyone have a clip of 200 cell cats + valvetronic vap on the V6? (with resonator staying in place) If it was me I would go for it, but I have to make sure for the lady/the boss in the passenger seat I can get it quiet enough LOL

 

The Valvetronic alone will be throaty and plenty loud, even in “quiet” mode. The 200 cell cats will make it too raspy and obnoxious sounding.
