I have just read an article in a french motoring magazine about an east european tuning company called MANSORY www.mansory.com they tell the magazine that they are currently working on a supercharger for the new V8 that should see around 500 bhp!! Has anyone heard of this company?

I have seen their DB9 with scissor doors and the Conti GT . Cant remember if it was at Geneva or somewhere else. I would suggest that they do alot of work for Russians.......

The V8's based on Jaguar's AJ8 engine out of the XK et al, isn' it? If so, this'd make perfect sense given Jaguar's (commendable) love of strapping a supercharger on. Surprised the factory aren't considering this given the likely power output and dynamics of the new XKR...
