Old Cat, New Tricks: 700hp Turbo LSX Jaguar Runs the Eighth

An old school Jag with american muscle under the hood? Yeah… This is a fun car.

Swapping out the heavy, gutless straight  six from this era of Jaguar is a no brainer. This guy exchanged that lump for an LQ9. While that’s not an LS by name, it’s the same family. Swapping it straight in would’ve been a huge upgrade. Of course, that wasn’t enough. A “little 76mm turbo” pushing 12 lbs of boost makes it better. No dude with a car this rad should be this modest.

Watch this Jag run the eighth in the forums!
