Default available tunes for 4 cyl?

Hey guys,

Considering adding a 4 cyl XF to the stable for the lady of the castle. My dealer could get me into one at a great price.....but i know the 4cyl is horribly under powered...was wondering if there were any tunes available to help relieve some of the pain.

Thanks

Tune my own to EURO 2 and activate dynamic mode.

Now in Sport mode with Dynamic Mode and Track DSC have some joy during driving.

As far as I know the current Jaguar 2.0 litre turbo petrol motor is in fact a Ford EcoBoost motor.
If so there are a few tunes and tuners out there for this motor, for example see here:
Ford Ecoboost Performance Tunes, Tuners, Parts and Accessories | MPT Performance
(then select the 13-14 Fusion on the right).
Of course JRL may use a different ECU and/or codes on their version of the Ford motor such that the Fusion tunes etc won't work. But maybe worth giving them a call.

I was told that the pitiful 2.0L is pushed to it's limits already and will crap out a lot sooner than the bigger engines trying to lug around a car of this size.

In JLR the ECU maps are different, impossible to load the program from Focus RS ot ST directly in 2.0GTDi JLR ECU.

Already more than 80000km on clock, with near 200km/h each day without any problems.
