Our DD is an '05 Jaguar S Type R. 5.2L Jag V8 with screw type charger.

Very linear power. Plant your foot and the boost is just there. Speed builds quickly.

Passing is easy.

Heavy car, but still a fun grocery getter and child hauler. 😉

I have resisted the urge to massage the intake tract and install an under size pulley for more/quicker boost.

Sadly there is virtually no aftermarket engine tune available for these cars. Just too small a market compared to BMW or Mercedes AMG stuff.

Have fun looking for your new project.
