Default Greetings

Just a note of introduction and hello to all! I just entered the jaguardome with a barn-fresh 1997 XK8 convert I'm bringing back to life. Its smoke with a tan top and interior. Its got 96K on it and runs great after some new computing internals. Still pulling the mouse innerds from under the intake ;"). The more I read about the XKR's the itchier I get about some boost. The AJ engines run really well. Seems to me to be a way to run the CAN, Body control, TCM and other modules off the ECU and bring in a stand-alone ECU so one could fool around with some small twin turbos or hang a big belt drive super off the side. Glad to be part of a great group of folks!

Welcome to the forum bustednuckle,

Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums.

I can see you've already found your way to the XK8/XKR tech forum so there's no need for a link to it from me.
The 'HOW TO' thread at the top is a good place to start for info on regular issues.

You can also visit the USA Central Region forum by following this link https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/usa-central-mt-wy-co-nd-sd-ne-ks-36//
to find other members in your region.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham

Ah, that's a chant I learned as a wee lass: "MORE POWER!!"
Where there's a will, there's Always a way.
