Tunes and upper pulley
Hey everyone I'm new to the forum and had some questions that hopefully get answered. I have a 2016 xf 3.0 sc and just did the velocity tune. I do have the upper pulley that I want to install knowing that it is a laborious job but wondering if would make a noticeable difference. Also, would I have to put it on a dyno to get the full use of the tune and pulley? Thanks

Lance (unhingd) has fitted both pullies to his V6 F-Type and has plenty of good advice why the upper pulley is pretty much a waste of time and money.
The smaller upper pulley achieves almost nothing on the V6 as it's only marginally smaller than the OEM pulley, you will achieve much more with a larger lower/crank pulley and associated tune. The lower pulley is also 1000% easier to fit.

VAP are good blokes to deal with (Chris and Stuart) and I suspect they would not charge you for another tune - one for the larger crank pulley assuming it is different to the upper pulley tune - especially if you bought a crank/lower pulley from them. They might even agree to swap the lower pulley for the upper pulley and only charge you the price difference, so I suggest you contact them and see what you can work out.
