Has anyone ever experimented with nitrous on these x308s?

just curious. Saw this kit Jaguar XJ8 Nitrous System

 

It would probably be easier to just buy an XJR than mess around with that stuff. These aren't rice racers, they are fast already.

 

Yes, I am going to end up with a XJR in addition to my XJ8. Just was curious about the juice.
Reliability is more important to me and that is mutually exclusive to NOS. I like my XJ8 too much to let it go. And I only paid 10K for it in January with only 37K on it. So she will end up as my daily driver powder puff, and I'll end up buying an additional XJR and look into the twin screw for that one. That one can breath a little fire ~

 

When you put in NOS, you just plain old beating up on the engine. It like putting steroids in the gas. An you know what steroids do in the long run.

Get a XJR that pushing 370hp FACTORY, pop in a lower ratio pulley and you jump up close to 400hp. At 400hp, you seeing most of these, so call fast cars in your rear view mirror.

NOS stands for NOoooo!!, Sh*t!!, I think I just blew my engine.

 

you can't take timing away so it's not a good idea at all. STAY AWAY!!!

 

Update,

The wife would be just fine with getting my "old" 2002 XJ8 and let me get the R.
I done good...

 

Wouldn't the ECU adjust timing based on lambda readings?

I'm contemplating adding nitrous to my XJR.

 

no adam it does but its not going to read a bad afr its the timing that you need to worry bout because N20 burns so much hotter and faster you want to back off the timing a lil. no worries been talking to my tuner bout a flip chip one setting for ***** out aggressive all blower beast an switch to blower beast plus steriods aka N20 lol
