Xk/r cars are my favorite for a lifetime. When it was released i was nearly 10 years old and since than it was my favorite till now. I hope i can have this pleasure to own one of them in the future.

I finally bought an XKR at the weekend, and I am beyond happy with it! 😁. Like you said the only time it's loud is when you plant your foot and that sound is beautiful 👌🏼. No annoying drone on the motorway at all as well. I think I'm going to love this car.

Having the 5 litre supercharger gives exactly what you say. Plus sport mode. Puts a smile on one's face every time 😁.

Sounds, literally, like enough to stay a perfect GT, with that beautiful V8 burble when you want it. Excellent Mod!

Awesome, never get bored of that sound.

Releasing the XK V8 music with the original Jaguar factory designed XKR was a great choice. Jaguar engineers will have researched the best balance of sound and performance, 👍

I went full Viezu on my 2010 5.0 supercharged. Tuner, pulleys, intercooler, Miletek exhaust. Wow what a difference. Great people to deal with too.

Hello mate, great video as always. I’m fitting mine on Tuesday so I’m excited to see what it sounds like all the best. Pete

Just did the same mod on my XK and can agree that this was the best choice! Greetings from Germany!

That blows the cobwebs away. What a sound.

Sounds lovely, I cut my box open wrapped the internals and tak welded the valves open sounds the same.they make a beautiful sound 😂

I need to pop out and find some underpasses and walls to fly through now. The weather has been so pants for so long I haven't driven with the windows down since I've owned the car. It's so well insulated that the only people who have enjoyed the sound are the people following me!

I really wish you all could have experienced the SPIRES Exhaust upgrade makes my stock XKR-S in comparison seem quiet. I’d have to get a Quicksilver now…. Don’t think it’s quite as good. Sounds clips in my account of XKR stage 3. And on highway super minimal drone - best upgrade ever apart from lighter wheels.

In honour of this video I have just gone out with my windows down, found a narrow road, and opened the taps. It is a proper naughty sound at full throttle. I just need to be careful as that also means I was travelling rather quickly!

is that straight pipe with a back box, sounds so nice

Nice one Paul, out of interest does it sound any louder in Sport, DSC and using the paddle shift

Yes ! Only because the revs are higher and blip on downshifting 😊

I spotted you on 2 KZread clips standing on it, leaving Cars in the Park 2023. Awesome JAG Growl! 😜Quick question for you and your followers; When you secured the valves with jubilee clamps they appear to be wide open and perpendicular to the tubes. My back box has the actuators left in place and the actuators appear to take the valves about 20 degrees past perpendicular, therefore not wide open. Is that True? I don’t want to miss any of that great sound. Thanks, Jay, Milwaukee USA

Hi there thanks for watching. Yes you are correct, not fully open with actuators left in place

I wish there was a modification for the stereo / nav to be upgraded to something more modern 😢

Bro send the link I have a 2013 XK convertible

I want to do that on my 4.2. But I'm not sure it'll fit as I have the XK160 body kit on it. 🤔

Yeah that kit has the square tailpipes so won't look right

I have a couple of extra SC rear boxes if anyone needs one!
