Window tinting done today. View attachment 49285

That looks nice, I think the sedans are starting to grow on me! 😂

 

[Mike King]

Anyone know what I can use on the chalky black trim around the windows to make it look better?

 

[kevinatfms]

By stage 1 I mean I don't have any major hardware mods (intercooler or radiator). Right now I'm pretty happy with my current performance, but someday I'll definitely want more lol

For $300, the intercooler is worth every single penny. Radiator isnt needed unless youre tracking the thing or beating on it excessively.

Youre missing out.

Stop tempting me!

5% off with FIST5 on the Whoosh website. $285 for the V1 intercooler.

I mean the rubber trim around the glass.

Do you have the upgraded high pressure fuel pump as well?

No , my tuner has dyno proven 30-40 more whp on e30 tune with my turbo on just uprated injectors. If I want more than that I would have to add in the fuel pump. Though honestly 340 ft lbs wheel tq is already nuts. I bought injectors on a whim because I got them for $330 from RockAuto. I had seriously not been to concerned previously. Though since the jag injectors were proven to be the 30% more injectors sold on other sites and the RockAuto price it was a why not.

For me the radiator was a necessity. NC summers were getting my temps way too high. I'd hit borderline unsafe temps sitting around in traffic, like a peak of 234 on coolant. Tracking in the summer was impossible obviously with 3-4 cooldown laps for every hot lap. Got the Mountune radiator and the highest I've seen is ~205-210 after a hard 20 min session on the track. Daily driving temps are 186 while moving and 196 in traffic. It helped bring my oil temps down too. Highest to date at a track day was 225 on the oil.

Did you have to change out any of the seals or seats to use the jag injectors? I must know these things. LOL Oh and for what year Jag please, engine, and model please.

Should be the 2014 Jaguar XKR 5.0 Supercharged injectors.

I have not put them in yet.

Bravo.

God that car is ugly. Jesus Ford.

Are these a direct swap? Is the car driveable afterwards before its tuned?

 

[Mike King]

I agree and I love it that way. No one will mess with my ugly ass car.

 

[razr_m3]

Direct swap, yes. You need to transfer over the spacer. And to my knowledge, no. It would require a tune since the flow rates will be completely different than stock on the fuel map.

he would also need a larger turbo because he is flowing way to much fuel for the stock turbo.

Yeah, I figured we were just working with the assumption he was going big turbo

I am, I'm just figuring out what I need and in what order. I can't go with a 4 port aux fuel setup because one of my electric fans is very close to the throttle body/intake pipe. I could do a single port or go with larger Di injectors
