I'm new here and still haven't got my MCS, I called today for the JCW package and here in Canada, if you add it to your bill of sale, it's $5600 but if you ask after you bought the car, they want $7200 plus $1200 to install and there's no warranty if you don't pay them to do it, and you'll be missing the limited slip that now comes with the 2006 factory installed JCW.
Now my Question is who sells the twin turbo and how much does it cost?
If it's cheaper and make more power then it's a no-brainer, where can I get all the information I need to do this?

Knowing now what I know....I would look long and hard at a twin charge.....I would have saved a lot of money and had more power......it's too late now.....and I am not unhappy with my car but damn I have spent some $

Granted I have a lot more than bolt ons, but it's definatly possible to get 200 HP out of a cooper S. I have some internal engine work done, but I'm running close to 230 WHP. I have a list of the mods at my house, honestly I don't remember all the stuff that's done, but I'll try to post it when I get a chance. Good luck! Just make sure you keep everything balanced, if you upgrade the engine, be sure you upgrade the brakes and tires for increased stopping power, ect. Happy tuning!

Not sure what you consider bolts ons, but our stage 4 package puts out about 230 at the wheels, consistently. (On all the cars)
Intake
Cowl Mod
Throttle Body
Plugs
Pulley
WAiC
Port matched intake manifold
Big valve, port and polished head
Cam
EVOtech software
Header
Exhaust
I guess technically the ECU software isn't a "Bolt on"... but the package gets 230 with a 15%... consistently.
Several people use our stage 4 cars as their daily driveras well as in the racing enviroment, saying these cars are reliable would be an understatement.

Also check out these videos of one of our sponsored racers. This is Steve Diniz in his Madness Stage 4 MINI... watch the video from the Porsche 993 turbo perspective.

Don't mean to upset nitrous users here, seriously. Again, my two cents...
