NEED 2001 XK8 PERFORMANCE TIPS & TRICKS
I am looking for any tips or tricks to squeeze more ponies from a 2001 XK8. I have already uncorked the exhaust for 15 ponies, cutout the bellows in the intake system and replaced with industrial hose for 2 ponies, and a K&N filter for 3 ponies. This engine is capable of so much more, so any suggestions are appreciated. I know it is not an XKR but it still can be faster than what it is.
Thanks in advance,
Jim

Install a supercharged engine, change the ecm, the transmission and the wiring harnesses and you should get an extra hundred horses for around $20k. Or trade it for XKR. Or you could look here: http://www.arden.de/aade/zubehoer_ue...63230333d34696
