    I would say Yes, as it has been proved that a JCW Supercharged S is only marginally quicker than a standard R56.

    Eggy, I've sent you a PM regarding this.

    That exhaust Craig has posted up is a bespoke exhaust he had made by a local company. It's not a Miltek. It looks amazing, sounds fantastic and gives more power. For the price, it is a bargain if you were thinking of changing to an aftermarket exhaust. More details in the PM.

    All based on experience. I drove our unmodified R56, then drove Craig's car, then back into my own car, for comparison, and in my opinion, Craig's car was more powerful with that exhaust fitted.

    Edit: Should also add that every exhaust manufacturer who has fitted an aftermarket exhaust to an R56 who has tested before and after has also recorded an increase in power output. Perhaps only 10 or so BHP, but noticeable all the same. No reason to suggest Craig's exhaust would be any different, taking into account the similarities in the manufacturing process - larger bore pipe and less baffling = less restriction to airflow.
