Please call us at 360-263-5001 or email jason.g@namelessperformance.com for further information. We are located in La Center, Washington - just north of Portland, Oregon. Locals preferred.

Thanks much!

What exactly are you looking to do. I have a completely customized 1999 XK8 convertible (body and interior) and I would love to start doing some mods on the engine.

Ok I'm bumping this one more time. I'll cut 30% off the cost of a pair of 2003-2006 XKR or XJR downpipes if someone is willing to ship us their set. We have a boatload of people interested in purchasing downpipes for the second gen XKR and XJR and have yet to find anyone local or anyone out of town who can bring us a car for development or is interested in shipping us their factory downpipes so that we can fixture up to start manufacturing the second gen parts.

If you are local and will bring your XKR to us (we'd need it for 2-3 days), we'll give you the same deal on downpipes or a full exhaust. Or both.

Oh, and if you're interested, take a look at our Facebook page for up to the minute details on what we're working on in the shop.

Thanks again for your help - we're looking forward to releasing a number of new products soon but need a little help from enthusiasts to get there!

Jason

When I had my 03 stype R I was looking into getting a spintech stainless steel dual inlet dual outlet custom made for the on-center width of the stock exhaust pipes, so it would be an easy install under the car. It was going to replace the stock center resonator, and then this would allow for the stock exhaust to be removed and fitted with straight pipes. I am assuming from research that this would be a similar situation with the xkr.

Any interest in also preforming this work with the addition of the highflow 200 cell cats? I just dont see the reason for replacing all of the exhaust tubing under the car and mounts if a system like this could be easily fitted.

Default MY 2003 XKR is in for prototyping!

So my 2003 XKR has gone to Jason at Nameless Performance before I have it shipped cross country to me.. It was a tough time getting the car down to him, amidst shipping scheduling changes,/delays and the 200 mile journey from the dealer ship to Nameless Performances shop, but Jason made this worry free and has been a pleasure to deal with.

After many phone calls about the planned exhaust system, and installation of the 200 cell "prototype" cats (for the 2003+ xkr), I have been completely blown away by his professionalism, attention to detail, and knowledge!

My car should be finished today, and I cant wait to get some pictures and videos up of how the cat purrrs, Dynos of how the whole systems performs should follow once I finally get the car.

In addition to the exhaust system, I know Jason has been extremely busy taking measurements off my car for other performance modifications, but I will let him elaborate on those when he gets a chance.

More to come soon...

To say I'm anxious to receive the car finally, would be a gross understatement.
