I contacted them to be sure it would work on the SC engine, because others stated it was not for the SC engine. They answered my question as no, they currently do not have one for the SC engine. I asked again why they were selling it for the XKR as they all have the SC engine and they answered it must be a mistake in the ad. This mistake continues.................

Hey, this is great. I'm sold.

Where else can you get 70 more HP and 25mpg for $8.99 plus shipping!! I wish the engineers at Jaguar would do this.

I am getting two soI canincrease HP by 140.... no, waiting maybe three is better.....

Gordo, you should stop at two. Then when you found out you got nothing for your money, you could say your engine gota fulltwin screw job.

I would never put anything like this - especially from ebay - on my car.

I know there are some legitimate HP/Performance improvements that can be made, including ECU tuning.

But I guess that's more than $8.99 - what - $15??
