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 the Predator package, the V8 F-Type reliably achieved between 650 and 660 BHP—a remarkable performance benchmark at the time and still impressive today. As 2024 arrived, the teams at VIEZU and Paramount Performance saw an opportunity to push the limits further, giving rise to the next evolution: Predator II.
After eight successful years with the F-Type Predator package, it was clear that an upgrade was due. Driven by our passion for innovation, we set out to unlock the full potential of the powerful AJ133 V8 engine. Starting in early 2024, our development team devoted nine months to reimagining the ultimate tuning package for the Jaguar F-Type, incorporating cutting-edge enhancements. Our mission was ambitious yet straightforward: surpass 700 BHP.

The Evolution of Predator
Jaguar F-Type tuning is central to our expertise. Since 2013, VIEZU and Paramount Performance have specialized in enhancing, modifying, and optimizing the Jaguar F-Type, earning a reputation as a global leader in transforming this extraordinary sports car..
The dedicated professionals at VIEZU and Paramount Performance invested significant time and effort into creating and perfecting the original ultimate tuning package for the Jaguar F-Type—Predator—which debuted in 2016. This carefully engineered package quickly became a favorite among Jaguar enthusiasts, elevating the F-Type to exceptional performance levels.
Jaguar F-Type Performance Upgrades
Central to the Jaguar F-Type Predator II Halo Vehicle are extensively tested upper and crank pulley upgrades, combined with a bespoke VIEZU performance remap. By integrating a smaller OEM upper pulley and an oversized crank pulley engineered by Paramount Performance, the supercharger’s speed is significantly increased. This enhances airflow through the engine, enabling greater fuel input and delivering substantially higher power output.
Focusing on airflow, Paramount Performance has developed a groundbreaking Stage 2 Cold Air Intake system, a standout feature of the advanced Predator II package for the Jaguar F-Type. This premium system improves airflow by up to 45%, adding an extra 20 BHP. In contrast, many lower-quality alternatives can reduce performance due to poor design, often delivering less or warmer air than the stock component. The high-quality Paramount Performance system not only boosts power but also introduces an exhilarating supercharger whine absent from the factory setup—a must-have upgrade for F-Type enthusiasts.
One of the standout benefits of our Halo Vehicle packages is their flexibility, putting you in complete control. You can customize the Jaguar F-Type Predator II package by selecting the components that align with your preferences and build your ideal setup at your own pace. For example, as an F-Type owner, you might start with the upper and crank pulley upgrades, remap, and cold air intake system—delivering exceptional value and a dramatic increase in power and performance. When you’re ready, you can elevate your build further by 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 expertly engineered upgrade features a 20% increase in displacement compared to the factory-installed supercharger, providing substantially greater capacity. This expanded displacement allows for enhanced airflow into the engine, precisely calibrated to optimize the increased flow rate. Such meticulous tuning unlocks the full potential of the AJV8 engine in the F-Type, unleashing levels of power and responsiveness previously unattainable. The outcome is an unparalleled driving experience, where every press of the accelerator delivers an electrifying surge of 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 offers a range of impressive benefits. Constructed from premium stainless steel, it boasts exceptional durability—often lasting the lifetime of the vehicle—while also being lightweight, potentially reducing weight compared to the standard exhaust system. Additionally, the system includes fully integrated valve control, giving you the choice to keep things quiet and discreet or to unleash the engine’s full roar when you’re ready to experience its power.
The outcome? A high-performance exhaust system and sports cat, paired with a precisely tuned V8, create an unforgettable and thrilling soundtrack. The sound is truly a sensation—watch the video of our development car for a preview, but nothing compares to hearing it live!
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 powerful Predator II package for the Jaguar F-Type is not just about jaw-dropping straight-line performance. Our development vehicle has also received significant upgrades in the handling department. While the F-Type’s chassis is already designed to handle far more power than the stock version—particularly in the all-wheel-drive configuration we’ve enhanced it further with premium lowering springs, front wheel spacers, and wider wheels and tires. These improvements deliver exceptional stability and responsiveness, making the car feel planted and confident through tight corners and sharp turns. However, with over 700 BHP under the hood, the Predator II demands respect, this machine isn’t to be underestimated.
Stand Out from the Crowd
The Predator II upgrade options include an array of eye-catching styling enhancements guaranteed to draw attention. Among these is the striking carbon fibre GT Rear Wing, perfect for making a bold statement at any car meet. Additional options include 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 component has been meticulously chosen by our team for its superior quality, performance benefits, and standout aesthetics—ensuring your F-Type turns heads wherever you drive.
