Introducing the Jaguar F-Type Predator II
Are you ready to elevate your driving experience to unparalleled heights? The Predator II isn’t for the faint of heart. Its power and performance are intense, exhilarating, and absolutely addictive!
With Predator, the V8 F-Type consistently reached between 650 and 660 BHP. A stunning level of performance then, and still impressive today. As 2024 arrived, the VIEZU and Paramount Performance teams felt it was time to push further, to create the next evolution: Predator II.
After eight years of setting the standard with our F-Type Predator package, we knew it was time for an upgrade. Our passion drives us to continually push boundaries, and our development team was eager to unlock the full potential of the remarkable AJ133 V8 engine. Beginning in early 2024, we dedicated nine months to reimagining the ultimate tuning package for the Jaguar F-Type, focusing on exciting new enhancements. Our goal was clear: achieve a true 700+ BHP.

The Evolution of Predator
Jaguar F-Type tuning lies at the core of what we do. Since 2013, VIEZU and Paramount Performance has been enhancing, modifying, and tuning the Jaguar F-Type, establishing ourselves as the global authority on transforming this remarkable modern sports car.
The expert team at VIEZU and Paramount Performance have devoted countless hours to develop and refine the original ultimate tuning package for the Jaguar F-Type—Predator—bringing it to market in 2016. This meticulously crafted tuning package quickly gained popularity among Jaguar enthusiasts, pushing the Jaguar F-Type to remarkable new levels of performance.
Jaguar F-Type Performance Upgrades
At the heart of the Jaguar F-Type Predator II Halo Vehicle are the rigorously tested upper and crank pulley upgrades, paired with a custom VIEZU performance remap. By using a smaller OEM upper pulley and enlarging the crank pulley with a top-tier Paramount Performance component, we significantly boost the supercharger’s speed, which drives more air through the engine and allows for increased fuel input, ultimately generating much more power.
On the subject of airflow, Paramount Performance has created a world-first Stage 2 Cold Air Intake system, specifically designed as a key feature of the powerful new Predator II package for the Jaguar F-Type. This premium system increases airflow by up to 45% and delivers an additional 20 BHP. Unfortunately, many lower-quality systems on the market can actually hinder performance due to poor design, often supplying less or warmer air compared to the stock part. The exceptional Paramount Performance system not only enhances power but also unleashes a compelling supercharger whine absent from the standard setup—a must-have upgrade for any F-Type owner.
A key advantage of our Halo Vehicle packages is the flexibility they offer—you, the customer, have complete control. You can select the components that best suit your needs and build your ideal version of the Jaguar F-Type Predator II package at your own pace. As an F-Type owner, you might begin with the upper and crank pulley upgrades, remap, and cold air intake system, which provide outstanding value and a truly jaw-dropping boost in power and performance. When the time is right, you can take the build even further, completing the full Predator II package.

Harrop Supercharger
The pinnacle of the Predator II Halo Vehicle package features the extraordinary uprated Harrop Supercharger, a game-changing enhancement for those seeking the ultimate in performance.
This meticulously crafted upgrade boasts a 20% increase in displacement over the factory-installed supercharger, offering significantly more capacity. With this added displacement, we’re able to further enhance airflow into the engine, fine-tuning it to match the increased flow rate. This precise calibration unlocks the full potential of the AJV8 engine in the F-Type, allowing it to deliver a level of power and responsiveness that was previously untapped. The result is an unrivalled driving experience, where every press of the pedal brings a surge of exhilarating performance.
Enhancing the Jaguar F-Type Experience
Beyond boosting your Jaguar F-Type’s performance with top-tier, carefully engineered components that enhance airflow into the engine, the teams at VIEZU and Paramount Performance also installs an exclusive high-performance stainless steel exhaust system with integrated valve control. This is paired with our 200-cell sports catalytic converters, all designed to allow the engine to breathe more freely, eliminate restrictions, and facilitate tuning for substantial power gains.
This exhaust system comes with numerous advantages. The high-quality stainless steel used in its construction is not only incredibly durable—likely lasting the lifetime of the vehicle—but it is also lightweight, providing potential weight savings over the standard exhaust system. As mentioned, the system features fully integrated valve control, giving you the flexibility to choose: stay quiet and stealthy, or let the roar of the engine come to life when you’re ready to unleash the full power beneath the hood.
The result? A high-performance exhaust system and sports cat, paired with a finely tuned V8, deliver an unforgettable, epic soundtrack. The sound is truly something to experience—just take a listen to the video of our development car, though it’s even more exhilarating in person!
All the Power, All the Time
Have you ever heard of the term “heat soak”? This is a common issue for many highly tuned cars. Essentially, as the engine warms up and ambient temperatures rise, the air intake temperature also increases, and the cooling system becomes less effective. The outcome? Your ECU reduces power to protect the engine. But don’t worry— VIEZU and Paramount Performance have developed a multi-step solution to this problem, ensuring that you experience consistent power, all the time!
After extensive research and development, our team has engineered an incredibly effective cooling system specifically for the Jaguar F-Type. We integrate a charge cooler, an upgraded supercharger cooler pump, and a chiller kit that work together to dramatically lower intake temperatures. This keeps your F-Type performing at its peak, no matter the conditions or the intensity of the drive.

Handling Upgrades
The formidable Predator II package for the Jaguar F-Type isn’t just about blistering straight-line speed. Our development vehicle has been significantly enhanced in the handling department as well. While the F-Type chassis is already capable of handling far more power than the stock version—especially in the all-wheel-drive configuration—we’ve taken it further with a selection of premium lowering springs, front wheel spacers, and wider wheels and tires. These upgrades make the car feel incredibly secure and responsive when navigating tight corners and sharp bends. However, with over 700 BHP, the Predator II commands respect—make no mistake, it will bite if you’re not careful.
Stand Out from the Crowd
The Predator II upgrade options also include a range of striking styling enhancements that are sure to turn heads. These include our impressive carbon fibre GT Rear Wing, designed to make a statement at any car meet. We also offer a Carbon Fibre Grille Surround, Carbon Fibre Front Splitter, Carbon Fibre Side Skirts, Carbon Fibre Mirror Caps, and custom-designed 20-inch alloy wheels. Each of these elements has been carefully selected by our team for its quality, performance, and undeniable style—ensuring your F-Type stands out wherever you go.
