Welcome to the forums colini,

As a newbie, you cannot use the forum PM system. There is a minimum number of posts and period of membership required before you can do this. I've sent caldoofy a PM to check the thread for new posts.

What is the difference between caldoofy's intake and the intake from Mina Gallery? Does anyone know? Thanks.

 

Mina - 75mm pipe made out of aluminium with standard pcv take off that requires additional tubing to connect pcv to intake.

My tube - 80mm pipe made out of stainless steel with pcv take off that allows factory hose (pcv to intake) to be used. Quad reinforced silicone joiners ( unsure of what Mina use).

Hope that helps.

 

I am interested in an intake tube if they are still available....

 

I would like to purchase the intake. Zip Code is 95037.

Thanks!

 

Tubes still available made to order, pm for further detail. Thanks.

 

Unfortunately as a new member i am not able to pm yet. Will contact you as soon as im able...

 

My email is chopnweld@aol.com if that is a suitable medium to order an intake....

 

Please pm me.

 

Going to put this in here as after a guinea pig to see if these will fit on the s type R.

I have had these manifolds made and now fitted to my car as the title suggests I have made a 31 hp and around 25 lbs ft gain at the wheels with no other changes to the car. My xjr x358 is currently sitting at 380 whp on this dyno with the mods listed in my signature. Next up is a live map to optimise everything!



Below is the power graph blue before and red after.


Ideally need some one in the north east of England Newcastle upon Tyne area to have a look at their vehicle with a view to fitting to see if these will go into the s type.

Cost will be £1800 the pair plus shipping and that also includes the 200 cell sport cats.

 

That’s not a bad price at all for quality headers with catalyrics. Unfortunately the lack of being able to tune my car has put a major damper on me wanting to invest in it performance wise anymore.

 

Thanks,

I am still puzzled as to why you are not getting the power output you want especially with the twin screw etc. Unless I am completely wrong is Avos' car not running around the 700hp mark with the stock ECU and tune on his xkr?

Think your first step is to get the Dyno run sorted and get the power and torque graphs along with boost pressure and afr there may be something a miss.

Also I think you mentioned you were using the stock exhaust, well shameless plug, but that 2 1/4 inch system isn't going to flow well at all for the volume you are putting through it. I am looking to trial a twin 3 inch system to see if there is any restriction with my setup.

I still think it's worth approaching paramount performance to see if they can load a map onto your ECU as Alec Escolmes car was successfully tuned by them so they must have cracked it!

Just a couple of thoughts, don't give up!

 

They look top notch. My want list continues to grow so thanks for that.. haha

 

Well I gotta have one. I dont even have my car yet. Its being shipped as we speak so it should be here in a few days. When I went to pick it up, I got sabotaged by the dreaded leaking cooling line at the rear of the supercharger so I left it out in CA and flew back.

So im going on a posting exercise to get my posts up. Once I can pm I will!

cheers!

 

I'd like to buy one of your air intake upgrades for a 2002 str.
My post code is st195ny.
Could I have a complete price how to pay and ETA

Many thanks
Fraser

Is the XJR and STR caldoofy pipe the same?

 

Hi
Will this fit my 2003 XJR supercharged Jaguar ?

If it does I would like to order one.

How do I place the order ?

Cheers

Don

 

Message Caldoofy, give him your car details and he will build you a Caldoofy intake pipe with the correct fittings for your engine, when you receive it make sure you use a good cleaner on the inside first before fitting it in case some fine metal cuttings or dirt deposits have secreted themselves during shipping, I used a pre-paint liquid on a soft micro cloth then let it dry 20 minutes before fitting, be prepared for a huge improvement in take off and the whine is tremendous
