Thread: TDV6 - SDV6 3.0L Power

Recently drove these back to back... very hard to pick the difference

The Jaguar F type 3.0 supercharged V6 is 250kW/450Nm; the V6 supercharged S is 280kW/460Nm. Same engine same supercharger.

i have had my car done by roo systems,oct 2014.I said i wanted only a slight increase in power,i wanted more torque for towing and fuel economy was high on the list.If you want the read out i will look for them and post but the difference was immeadite.Fuel consumption was much better and throttle response was very crisp.Very happy i had this done.I have just been away towing my van ,it weighs 3460kg ,travelled on mostly hilly country some freeway and got 10.4lts/100klms.That will do me

G,day Boardrider
What vehicle do you have and what did they do? Chip & exhaust?
Our van is 3200kg and the best i have got is 16 per 100 normally averages 18 per 100

hi, sorry i have my/08 2.7 diesel. i just had the remap done as i requested.It is awesomeI was told at the time they were doing a lot of tdv6 cars that brought them up to the power of the sdv6.much cheaper than buying the sd
I checked a couple of times to confirm the consumption and it was
10.4 and 10.6 The tdv6s where being taken to roo systems new from the dealers prior to the customers picking up

Hi boardrider, that is outstanding fuel economy, what was the economy before the upgrade and what speed are you doing with the van in general? Just like aus86inch I get 18 L/100 towing my 3.2 ton van (nominally at 95 ~100 kph) and if I could improve that to 15 I would be very happy. When I inquired it was a $1695 upgrade, and that is a lot of kilometers at 3L/100 km difference in economy. I know you get a big power/torque increase but I am OK with the performance as it is, the 183kW / 600 N.m and 8 speed auto does it easily so for me it is harder to justify.

That's very interesting....obviously the dealership doesn't care that you've modified your car. Or maybe they won't care also, if something goes wrong under warranty .... if you get what I mean?...LOL. Hopefully it's the former.
