I had a beef with the company. The "kit" wasn't shipped complete at first, they did a hack job on the engine cover, and it didn't come with any documentation what-so-ever. Some instructions and a spec sheet on the tune would have made all the difference in the world. Maybe they're doing that now.

The tvt265 DOES work. Along with the "Sprint Booster" it changed a very anemic engine into a lively and fun ride. 1st gear on my 6spd is very short now and there's some decent 2nd gear rubber.

I really don't give a krap about mileage but it appears to be about the same as before.

My 05 is out of factory warranty. Someone with a newer XF might chime in.
