    If anyone is looking to sell F54 Cooper S tuning parts let me know.

    Ideally I’ll be looking to upgrade the intercooler, exhaust and air filter/intake at some point prior to getting a remap.

    Thanks

    I would love to get hold of a Remus exhaust but they are so expensive!

    I have looked into the JB4 and I like the idea of the plug and play but I would need to put the car on a rolling road to set up properly and see what sort of gains it was producing.

    I’ve used Ecotune in Glasgow for mapping before with good results albeit it wasn’t a Mini.

    We've trialled a JB4 on the dyno to see the gains.

    On the day we visited the F56 JCW we used produced a peak of 244bhp and 303 ft/lbs of torque.

    With the JB4 on Map 1 (which is +4PSI over stock) the test car made 271bhp and 330ft/lbs.

    With the JB4 on Map 2 (which is +6PSI over stock) the test car made 285bhp and 350ft/lbs.

    I do know that a little more is possible with the JB4 if it's dialled in to the specific car but for a simple plug and play job we found the above figures to be very positive.

    It's also worth mentioning that the JB4 is designed for the Cooper S so the above figures are what you can realistically expect from a Cooper S. The only concern with running Map 2 is high exhaust temperatures (EGTs) so it's advised to use Map 2 only if you have an upgraded exhaust.

    That’s interesting. It’s good to hear of someone that has actually tested a JB4 as most of the time people just estimate the results.

    There doesn’t seem to be a lot available in terms of exhaust options for the clubman and I wouldn’t bother with the hassle of fitting a decat downpipe.

    I’m still on the lookout for an exhaust for the Clubman.

    If anyone is looking to sell a JCW or Remus exhaust then please let me know.

    I’ve been watching for something suitable to come up for sale for ages but no joy as yet.

    If I don’t find something come the new year I’ll probably opt for a new Remus exhaust.

    Thanks

    I just feel like it would be a bit of a gamble when it comes to sound/noise whereas you know what you’re getting with the Remus exhaust.

    It’s something I’ll have a look at though and see if it’s an option.

    Any good custom place should be able to make it how you want it.
