A cheap way of getting a great V8 sound from an XK8. I have removed the four rear silencers and replaced with straight through pipes at a cost of £398.00

That’s sounds awesome!! When ever I get an XK8 or XKR I’ll do the same. But this is my dream car and hope to get it one day

I totally agree!! I believe that’s the stage 2 exhaust system for the XK8 provided by Jaguar

GREAT sound! I'm planning on doing the same to mine. Questions: Have you had any incidents of the "check engine" light going on after doing this? Or any other problems due to the removal of the back four? Thanks so much for sharing!

Sorry for the very late reply as I have not looked at this for a long time. No engine light as it would not effect engine management as all changes are after the exhaust sensors. Get a very slight drone at about 55mph but above and below that speed is good

At first I thought you got into the wrong door. I love these but I prefer V8 Vantage which has a modified version of this engine. I actually bought one.

Do You think it added any power ? If so how much do you suppose..
@stevebass39925 жыл бұрын
Technically it should be more powerful as the old system was very restrictive but you don't actually notice it when driving. It is suggested about an extra 5hp

is there any exhaust drone? im planning om doing this to my xk8 but dont want any drone. thank you!
@stevebass39927 жыл бұрын
There is slight drone at 1500rpm but is ok before or after that. There is more drone if you change just the rear section than the rear and over axles.

Is it possible to have references ? thanks

Adamesh straight through pipes. You can buy just the rear section or rear section and over axle pipes

What exhaust does it have? It’s gotta be aftermarket
@stevebass3992 Жыл бұрын
Its the Adamesh system. Basically straight through pipes from the big main silencer. So all four rear ones removed. Cost about £400 to do it yourself

Adamesh Stage 2?

No. each to his own. The original for me was too quite in fact Jaguar realized this when the did the XK replacement and made them sound like mine now
