Default New Mods!!!

Hello all,

I have a 2003 XJR with 57k. I just purchased a Snow Performance Stage 3 water/meth kit and The Eurotek stage 2 kit with the reflashed ECU and pulleys. I'm super pumped I think after this the car is gonna be an absolute ANIMAL. Does anyone have experience with any of this. I'm new to the Jag scene and cant wait to see what the old Thundercat can do!


Jon

I almost got the eurotek upgrades also. Very curious to see how it turns out for you.

Water meth=$680
stage 2 kit= $1500
borla exhaust= $1150
intake=$150
install of pulleys= $1000
Istall of meth kit= done myself

You're right I need to find some rollers to see what she puts on the ground. I'm going to guess around 480 at the wheels conservatively.

I'd guess 350 rwhp, not being funny, but 480 rwhp is twin screw territory, what boost are you working with upper and lowers? I'd guess 7" crank, and 1.5lb upper. With induction and exhaust, you feel the grunt lower down the rev range, I'd doubt 480rwhp though.

Get her on the rollers!

No freaking way! How the hell is that putting it conservatively? Didn't Eurotek tell you how much to expect with their package? Even they wouldn't dare give such an outrageous number.

Eurotek gives +65 hp and +90 ft lbs of torque with their setup
