Jaguar's supercharged 5.0 V8: one of the most vocal engines on the market

The supercharged 5.0 V8 in your F-Type V8 is famous for one thing: its voice. A wild growl and machine-gun crackles: a temperament Jaguar openly used as a selling point. Then emissions rules came along: recent model years have been considerably tamed, and even the early cars keep something in reserve that the factory exhaust does not deliver.

The Rog exhaust gives the V8 back its full temperament: the big-cat growl, the volleys of bangs on the overrun, the constant presence. And the valves let you drive back into your street without waking the neighborhood.

What makes up the exhaust on your Jaguar F-Type X152 V8

Here is what the Rog exhaust replaces, and where the sound is shaped.

How the exhaust system is laid out From left to right: the engine, then the Rog cat-back with its valved muffler and tips.Rog cat-back: the complete exhaustEngine
Valves closed: the gases take the long way through the muffler and the cabin stays calm.Valves open: no more detour, the sound comes out unfiltered.Schematic only; the actual routing depends on the vehicle.

The cat-back is the complete exhaust system

It is everything you can see under your Jaguar F-Type X152 V8, all the way to the tips: pipes, muffler, valves. Routing, muffler, valves: this is where the sound is shaped. The engine and the ECU stay as they left the factory.

Your Jaguar F-Type X152 V8 in figures

What an exhaust changes straight away is the sound, the engine's breathing and the weight at the rear. For more power, add an ECU remap.

Power

Factory495 to 575 hp
Stage 2650 hp

Torque

Factory625 to 700 Nm
Stage 2800 Nm

Published manufacturer and Stage 2 figures. Factory figures vary by version; Stage 2 published for the 575 hp version.

With or without an ECU remap, the exhaust fits and works. But it is an ECU remap at an approved tuning center that truly unlocks your Jaguar F-Type X152 V8, and that is what we recommend.

To be completely transparent: the exhaust alone brings better breathing and sound. The supercharged 5.0 V8 responds very well to Stage 2 with an ECU remap at an approved tuning center: the supercharger delivers instantly, and the figures above stay within the reliability zone of a proven engine.

Configuring your exhaust, step by step

3 choices, in the same order as the product page configurator.

  1. Step 1 of 3: Material: stainless steel or titanium

    Titanium costs more than stainless steel; the price of each version is shown on the product page, in your currency.

    304 stainless steel

    Weight
    Baseline
    Sound
    Full and rounded

    Durable, corrosion-resistant, with a rounded, full sound: the most popular option.

    Titanium

    Weight
    Around 40% lighter
    Sound
    Metallic, crystal-clear

    For the same design, it weighs around 40% less than stainless steel. A more metallic note at high revs and a look all of its own, from brushed to blued.

    Both materials age well: 304 stainless steel copes with winter and salt, and titanium does not rust. Stainless steel or titanium: what really changes.

  2. Step 2 of 3: Valves: Rog remote or factory control

    Two ways to control the valves on your Jaguar F-Type X152 V8.

    Rog remote

    Rog remote for opening and closing the valves

    The simplest solution: a control unit in the trunk and a remote, open or closed at the press of a button, whatever mode you are in. A question while fitting? We will get back to you.

    Factory control

    • Only for vehicles fitted with factory valves
    • Controlled by the drive modes

    Does your vehicle have factory valves? The exhaust keeps their existing control: the drive modes operate the valves, as before, with no added electronics.

    On a long journey, what matters is the absence of drone at a steady speed. With the valves closed, the exhaust keeps the cabin calm; the show is still there whenever you ask for it. More about exhaust drone.

  3. Step 3 of 3: Tips: the visual signature

    Match the tips to the style of your Jaguar F-Type X152 V8, understated or bold. A particular finish in mind? Send us a photo and we will look at it together.
