New 09 JCW Mod. Help

Hello Group
I'm new to the group and MINI. Just purchased my 09 JCW and would like to do some basic modifications. One i have a question regarding the suspension. The vehicle came with the sport suspension and i would like to know the difference between the stock JCW and also JCW Suspension package aftermarket. Also interested in modifying the turbo and intake and ECU. Last would like to do an aero kit on the car.

Help me and let me know what my option are. Thank you and going through this forum, seems to be very knowlegable

I beleive the factory sport suspension only adds 1mm in diameter to the sway bar. Not a big improvement over non-sport.
