Hello all,
I have a 2011 Jaguar XF premium with around 80k miles on it. Looking to do some mods on it, cai, tune etc? Let me know if any of you out there have modded or have suggestions for this model. Thanks in advance.

 

So anybody out there modded their Non SC XF?

 

Plenty of discussion around these forums on modding the NA 5.0 for more power and torque and the consensus is there is not a helluva lot you can do short of very expensive internal work. Maybe a few more neddies with a tune but not a lot and no (so-called) CAI set-up has ever been shown to improve the already very good stock system.
The only way to tune and massage the AJ133 for substantially more power and torque and still get a good bang for your buck is to start with the SC version.
And yes, plenty have asked "can I turn my NA version into the SC version?" and the answer is "nobody knows because no-one has ever successfully done it and even if it could be done it would cost a bomb, probably way more than trading your NA for an SC version".

 

thanks Oz! Yea I just changed the filters to K&N and I have a vap tune on the way. Other than that I plan on getting new wheels and blacking out some of the chrome. I am definitely keeping this car as it’s pretty quick already and handles pretty well. And it sort of turned out to be my daily driver surprisingly as I have also an Audi Q7 and a Mini Cooper Countryman S and tend to go for the jag every time. I will invest in a SC XF next year and add another jag to the stable if wife lets me
