Hi guys just wondering i have the 2.7 hse RRS on a 2008 i thought it was single turbo but i see on another group the jaguar engines fit the RRS these are also 2.7 but twin turbo is this right. Thanks everyone
hiya
In the D3 and RRS the 2.7 TDV6 are single turbo , the 3.0 litre is twin turbo, normally called a SDV6 which stands for sequential , fitted in D4s and later RRS
alas don’t know if the jag engines are twin turbo unless they mean the 3.0 litre
hope that helps

Think outside, no box required.
Land Rover is single turbo IIRC Jaguar is Twin BECOZ POWAH!!
It is a PSA Unit,
The TDV8 is a ford unit codenamed "lion"

thks for clearing that up, surely though the twin turbo jag engine won’t fit the RRS or D3 because of the electronics
know the 2.7 can be used but needs everything swapping over
indeed, think that’s called a DT17 or AJD

A guy i know has had a jaguar engine 2.7 fitted into his 2.7 RRS due to crank failire so had to.replace engine just wondering how it fitted if the jag has twin turbo and RRS single.turbo
DT17 is the frog version, the AJD is the Ford version of the same engine built under consortium.
the 2.7 S type jag as far as I’m aware is a single turbo , as indeed that can be fitted into the RRS and D3
unless of course all the manifolds etc is also req to be changed
Know all the electronics have to be swapped over
@Henry_b , hi mate , so is the S type jag twin turbo’d plse , as I know that can be fitted in the RRS and D3 with everything swapped over

S type is twin turbo Definately. Same block and heads but intake is totally different
Even the 3.0 block is the same as far as I'm aware.
bless u for that
so must take all the intake off then to swap it over to fit into a RRS/D3
know there’s also a difference with HP fuel pump between the EU3 and EU4 , later one runs higher speed so injectors have to also match
ref the SDV6 3.0 I’m not sure to be honest , know the 3 litre has bigger bores and of course the twin turbos

The S type is Twin Turbo the XJ350/58 use the unit too, 'tis nice and quick in them./
You have to swap the manifolds IIRC>

Didnt think you could go from single turbo to twin turbo without changing the ecu and electrics then again im far from a mechanic
Plus 1 , indeed, that’s what many do with the S type by swapping everything over from the D3 inc sensors
recon disco engine are around £4-5k

So by doing this the RRS will still run its single turbo or would it be using the S type twin turbo
