Default Just Installed My TCP Intake!

Hey guys,

I just want to let all the XJ/XJL owners know that there is now a cold air option for our cars from Twin Cities Performance. Chris over at TCP worked with me to build me a custom intake and all I can say is wow, what a difference it made with sound and response. Give it a couple hundred miles and the ECU should fully adapt to the changes. I'm just glad that the three intake resonators are gone now to get some supercharger whine out of the Jag. This is definitely worth the money with this mod. Overall the installation was pretty straight forward. All I had to do was loosen the right side air box and carefully massage the new intake system into the engine. There was plenty of room for adjustment just to get it right. The factory vacuum line that connects to the diverter valve was replaced with the new hose included with the intake. The stock breather hose on the right side was also replaced with a new hose. It is a direct bolt on kit for the X351. Visit Twin Cities Performance at their website and email Chris! You will not be disappointed!

Johncy

Very nice mod, thanks for sharing! Will the system work on N/A engines also?

I believe the airboxes are different for the NA engine. I'll confirm tomorrow.

No, they will not work on the NA motors, assuming they are the same setup as the XF NA 5.0L. The stock NA 5L intake tubing has a extra section of 1" - 2" plastic tubing that runs toward the back of the motor on the NA 5L's.

However, this same intake will work on the XJR.
