  • VelocityAP 200-cell High-flow Cats (F-Type)

    VelocityAP 200-cell High-flow Cats (F-Type)

    ¥ 216,500

    High-flow cats for the Jaguar F-Type! More power and a more aggressive exhaust note without any resonance – what’s not to like?

    These fit the V6, V8, S, R, and R AWD variants.

    Note: You may get an emissions warning with this product. I’d recommend an engine tune to eliminate that, along with getting the host of benefits the tune gives. Click here for the 3.0L AJ126 Supercharged V6 engine tune, and click here for the 5.0L AJ133 Supercharged V8 engine tune.

  • VelocityAP 200-cell High-flow Cats (V8 Vantage)

    VelocityAP 200-cell High-flow Cats (V8 Vantage)

    ¥ 293,900

    More power and more sound – what’s not to like? These 200-cell catalysts are less restrictive for your exhaust system, allowing your engine to breathe more easily. You’ll get approximately 15 bhp and 15 ft/lbs, plus a more aggressive exhaust note.

    Installation hardware included, and you can check out my DIY Guide if you’re installing these yourself.

  • VelocityAP Engine Tuning (V8 Vantage)

    VelocityAP Engine Tuning (V8 Vantage)

    ¥ 232,000

    One of the things I recommend most highly for any V8 Vantage owner that wants more power and better throttle response is engine tuning from VelocityAP. The factory tune is highly restrictive and leaves a lot of performance left to be uncorked. VelocityAP’s engine tuning will give you better engine response and as much as an extra 25 bhp over factory.

  • VelocityAP Exhaust Manifold Gaskets

    VelocityAP Exhaust Manifold Gaskets

    ¥ 4,200

    Exhaust manifold gaskets for the V8 Vantage.

    These are the gaskets that fit between the engine and exhaust manifolds (AKA headers). Aston Martin’s pricing for these skyrocketed so VelocityAP set out to make their own, which keeps the costs far more reasonable for us.

    These gaskets are sold individually. Two must be ordered if replacing them on both sides of the engine.

It replaces the secondary cats of naturally-aspirated 6.0L V12 cars, giving a louder and more exotic exhaust note to your car.
