Default HI all

Hello im Ed from california will be buying an xkr soon. Have been looking around and test driving My wife said if i buy one It has to have seating for 4 so i cant get a type-f R v8- 550h ill have to settle with an xkr 2010-2012. Just have a few questions. I have noticed alot of 0-60 stats for these cars and i want to reach 3.5s i have noticed the R v8 5.0L rearwheel drive is 3.8-3.9 and i keep hearing of tuning the ecu and replacing pulley. If i get the XKR v8 5.0 510hp with tune i hear it can get 590hp do you guys know anyone that got the Ecu tuning and pulley and what else might i need to get to reach the 3.5s I hear with the type-f R its possible to reach 610hp and 3.5s easy just with tuning and pulley is this correct?

Welcome to the forum Ed,

Good to have you with us at Jaguar forums.

If 4 seats is a priority, only two very small children can get in the back seats and if you are hoping for 4 adults, this is NOT the vehicle for you.

Follow this link
https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/xk-xkr-x150-33/ to the XK/XKR forum for help, advice and information.

You can also visit the Western Region forum by following this link
https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/us-western-38/ to find other members in your region.

Enjoy the forums.

Graham
