Best Mods for the Eaton Supercharger
I was trying to get more info on the best mods for my 08 XKR which led me to Eatons webiste:
Eaton Advances Supercharger Technologies: Saving Fuel and Reducing Emissions
Where I came across this statement: "Eaton’s TVS supercharger design was first introduced in 2008 on the Audi A6, Corvette ZR1, Cadillac CTS-V, Jaguar XJ XK XF and Range Rover vehicles"
Does anyone know for sure which 2006 and on XKRs have the Eaton M112 and which got the Eaton TVS?
TIA

Am afraid this is info not correct (at least Jaguar hasn’t used these on production engines). I was also under the impression that the TVS unit was used earlier on the 4.2, as jaguar upped the power from 400 to 420 bhp. Jaguar even displayed a TVS unit in their brochure for 4.2 engines, so I was very convinced. But the extra power is mainly due to the VVT and I have seen at least 1 supercharger unit that was clearly the old 5th gen.

Not sure what your, could be 2007 or 2008.
Here is a brochure where you see an eaton unit, well at least the outside case it is:
This picture doesn't show the TVS lobes (can't find the brochure I had where I thought it where lobes from a TVS), it looks more like twin-screw lobes...
