Hi there, new to the forum and thought i would say hi

I have had a 2010 XKR for the last few years and i was contemplating moving on to something else but I cant find anything that comes close to this car at present so i am going to keep it for a while longer The main reason for this is that it that it has had a few upgrades and now pushes 600hp at the wheels and goes like the wind and sounds like the devil breathing down yer neck so unless i want to spend the equivalent of a small third world budget on something faster i am going to keep this and keep enjoying it

regards
simon

Welcome to the forum Simon. Nice to have you with us.

600HP at the wheels? Really? You're going to have to give us the details, that's kind of, hard to believe mate... what have you done?

 

Good on you, Simon,

Good Car, Exquisite Taste, what can I say, you are most welcome, Good Luck and hope you enjoy your Quest? Regards, Stuart

 

Thanks for the welcome guys

the car has been remapped, smaller supercharger pulley fitted, full milltech exhaust system and rolling road tweaked, the dyno road print out was showing 594.2hp at the wheels but that was when the car was new so now that the engine has loosend up a bit i suspect it might be a little more, but then again it might be a little less, it used to pull 174 mph and then sit on the rev limiter, it now pulls 170 but that might be the speedo being slightly inaccurate. what ever the exact hp is now it still goes like stink!

 

welcome

That's not possible. Sorry but I do not believe you. No way a 4.2 could make that power. Even 594hp at the flywheel is impossible with just those modifications.

 

i dont need to convince you as i have the dyno read out, plus it isn't a 4.2 its a 5.0L
