Default $200 self tuning obd2 Jaguar Programmer

I contacted the manufacturer and they told me, it will work on any Jaguar and
self dyno tune the vehicle for better performance and listen for knock etc etc. Any one with experience on these units>?

Utter BS, designed to lure those who want more performance but don't know enough about their cars to really get it.

I encourage you to read the customer reviews at the bottom of the link you provided.

Glad to know, I don't want nothing communicating to any computer in this car without verifying.Your likely to fry the ECM or throw it in safe mode.


Well, im doing the under axle exhaust 2.5", cold air intake, and 3:73 gears.


Do the XK8 read the speed for the odometer with the speed sensors? Meaning if I upgrade the gear, the speedometer would not be off>?

I recall reading that the left rear wheel provides speed input. But I also seem to recall that the transmission does a speed reading also, and the conflict could be a problem if that is the case.

Do they have one in London?

Very interested in acquiring real estate with the funds I'm awaiting from Nigeria held in trust for me in the estate of my long lost great uncle

Those are the performance mods I am looking at also. Will be very interested in following your progress.
