V6S Tune
#181
I believe that eurocharged has done some of the V6s, but they have not published any serious results.
#182
I have found no tuners with any definitive results for the V-6 other than my own local tuner using my car and Jaronstoys'. For safety reasons, he refuses to do remote tunes because of the variability in the set ups of each of the vehicles and the need to see how the vehicles are responding on the dyno.

Totally understandable from your tuner, good business practice. I was looking at eurocharged when I first joined, and you're correct, they have still the same claim but not test results to back up the claim.
I think I'll just pass on the tune for now, and spend the money on ALP's or something more creative, just hate to have hard time keeping up with 4.2 s-type ...

The only tuner who provided any V6 information at all and was responsive to contacts was eventually discredited and disappeared.

I received your email and replied - I'm guessing that you didn't see the response?
I will call you tomorrow. We're happy to work with you.

Will be looking to resume this mod once I get it back, however this will likely be after May 31st now. Looking forward to your results in the meantime!

I was just attempting to do this last week, however the lower pulley exposed an issue with my supercharger. The car is now with the dealer, getting a new one.

Not sure yet. One issue seemed to be the torsion isolator (https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/xk-xkr-x150-33/2010-xkr-supercharger-torsion-isolator-137560/). This was leading to a random knocking sound coming from the engine bay.
Also, logs from the OBD reader showed IAT temps were reaching 110C (230F) and peak boost from the supercharger was reaching 29 psi (with Eurotoys upper and lower pulleys installed). Something was definitely wrong but don't have any further information yet. Will keep everyone posted when I find out some more.
You can see the ECU pulling power after 2,200 rpm (probably because of the heat). It's also cutting power altogether at around 5,900 rpm.

He's very booked up in the summer and has a lot more time to spend on development in the fall and winter.

Yes, lower pulley has been installed. Behe is preparing a couple of Porsches for a race weekend so he might not get to the re-tune until Monday. You can't rush an artist.

Also, just FYI for anyone following this thread, after some exchanges with Mike from Eurotoys, I've found out that the boost from the supercharger must be limited by the ECU. Otherwise, it will overboost the engine (explaining the 29 psi i saw earlier).

That's great news. Are you driving her around at the moment?

He will also be carefully monitoring IAT to ensure that the SC is not being excessively over-driven. If the IAT gets too high, we may have to revert to a +10mm crank pulley in place of the +18mm pulley.

No. I won't drive it until the tuner can ensure that all parameters are within acceptable limits. Behe just got the car on the dyno at noon today and will try to finish up by tomorrow afternoon. He will be tuning to maximize the torque range, not to increase the peak numbers.

You are experiencing the same issues that we encountered. I'm encountering them a bit sooner because of the 2.5% upper pulley. Are you throwing any codes when the power drops off?
