havent tried it myself but Paramount as a company dont have a great rep - poor quality based on a few other users experiences
If you are looking for more pops and bangs (what engine do you have & what MY?) then id go down the route of a new exhaust system
200 cell cats give you more volume
cat back pipe and smaller back box can be purchased in either valved or non valved form
loads of options around, personally i wouldn't want to have a software tune just for pops and bangs

VAP can allegedly alter their tunes to affect the pops and bangs.

T7MBOR - just spotted your location, I'm in coventry so not too far away
when meets come back on, why not come along to a Jaguar Breakfast Club at the Heritage Centre in Gaydon - plenty of Ftypes, some with full systems, some will cats, you can pick and chose what you like the sound of

Thanks for that!

I've just purchased this one https://used.jaguar.co.uk/search#/details/3035585

Should be collecting next Tuesday.

Last Jag I had was a 2011 XKR,since when I've had a 997 Turbo and more recently a lovely 2018 RS6.

Looking forward to getting back into a Jag, but it worries me a little that people say the later ones are much quieter than earlier cars...

I'd love to come to the breakfast club when all this madness has settled down!

Looks nice 8-)

Especially the cool cooled seats!

Going from the XKR to the 997 must have been interesting.

Love the silicon silver colour! Think you should be ok noise wise, I test drove a 19 plate R and it sounded great. Sadly my MY20 P380 has petrol particulate filters and is noticeably quieter than the P380 I also test drove - something I will looking to do something about.

Very very nice car.
I have that colour on my wife’s Evoque and people stop in car parks, etc. to ask the colour. It’s awesome and would love to have it on an F type
