Racing Green in Farnborough do some tuning Mod's, the main company is a German Tuner called Arden! Be warning that all tuning parts for the XJR are very expensive.

I drove the Racing Green XJR with 450BHP, big bore exhausts and puch button gear change...very nice!

Dom.

apparently these things only run a small amount of boost from the s.charger as the compression is the same as an NA , my first thoughts were decent exhaust and de-cat , can they be chipped ???
Got a quote of 12-14K for 450bhp, found one allready tuned to 450 but it was emerald green and £30,000.Told my mate to buy a Skyline .

Si325i , the jags not my cup of tea , belongs to a mate who has too much money , he really should buy a skyline but is too snobby to drive a 'datsun' , ive got a supra tt aerotop with a few mods and it makes the jag look a bit silly which is fun .
