I bought a DDM intake from Way at the dragon last year. He took the time to install it for me even though I hadn't made an appointment, and despite the rain. I chatted him up a bit while he was doing the install and he knows an awful lot about our cars and the MINI community in general. I would recommend him to anyone!

More Horse Power
Cons:

I bought the WAY/DDM intake from Wayland in November and I wanted to give it some time before my initial response. But either way I'm very impressed with this product and would recommend it to more Cooper owners. I have a CV transmition and it gave me exactly what I was looking for without having to put a lot into my car. I have the power necessary to move where I want and have a little more fun. Plus the roar my car gives is awesome. Thanks Way for you help and intallation. Craig

Pros:
Installed while I waited at the Dragon
Cons:
It rained all day...boo - but products are great
Way installed 15% reduction pulley and an ALTA CAI at the Dragon in 2006. I have had absolutely no problem and have already scheduled a sway bar installation and some brake improvements for this year's Dragon. I am extremely pleased and satisfied with the work and the results.

Pros:
great product
Cons:
still working out kinks on new web site
Bought a ScanGagueII from Way through his website. While he still has some kinks to iron out with the new website and ordering system, he was responsive, and the product is great.
Thanks again, Way!

Pros:
aylen helps you understand what you really need for your Mini!
Cons:
None, unless you cant wait for him to return from his second shop or from the road.
Waylen is one of the few if not only MINI Certified Mechanics who owns his own brick and mortar shop (Actually two of them), runs a successful web aftermarket parts supply business and performs work at special events. WayMotorWorks can get you any part/Mod you want/need. He is also an authorized Dimsport Tune dealer who can help you get the most from your Mods.
Way has helped me out with the following Mods: (WMW Pulley, Dimsport Tune, DDM Intake, Miltek Exhaust, Wires, Custom Strut Re-enforcement Plates, Silver Bulbs)
Way has also helped me with diagnostic work on Brakes, Fault Codes. IF you have a problem he can help you figure out what is going on and get you back on the road.
Every experience with WayMotorWorks has been a pleasant one so do not hesitate!

Pros:
Excellent product quality - superb installation
Cons:
none
Prior to AMVIV5 I engaged Way for a DDMWorks Street Intake for my R56 and a 19mm rear sway. I followed his recommendations for the products and they were installed at AMVIV5 after I did an easy prepay. Way brought the products out to Las Vegas and when I arrived on Thursday afternoon, he insisted they install the CAI so I could enjoy it early. My installation appointment was for Saturday AM.
I could not be happier, the CAI adds a little power and lots of character to the MCS R56.
Since I have the standard suspension with my MCSa, the Hotchkis 19mm rear sway bar is a 100% improvment in how the MINI performs though corners and on the mountain roads in Colorado.
Excellent and easy vendor and I plan on having Way and his crew do some more work for me.

Way has installed an H Sport 25mm rear sway bar, M7 Ultimate grills, New Slotted rotors and green stuff pads, a new serpentine belt and NGK plugs, M7 Air Diverter and I purchased a Scanguage II from him. He is always very helpful and willing to give you good solid advice based on his BMW Certification and Racing Experience. He will not sell you something he doesn't believe in.
He has also done some maintenance work on my 2000 323iT and I'm very satisfied with both the work and the price. You can expect nothing less than professionalism from Way.

When I asked about another brand of bar, Way pointed me toward the H-sport, because of the grease fittings. This is the best reason for using them - they know what they are doing. I made an appointment by PM for a MOTD Friday morning install of an H-sport 19mm rear swaybar. They brought it/no shipping, installed it, and I like it. The install went smoothly - they know what they are doing.

Pros:
Install at the Dragon CAI and rear sway bar
Cons:
They were professional and quick! THe mods were definatly worth it!
The CAI gave my car more power and lets me hear the turbo whine, and the rear sway makes sure i stick to the curves.
thanks so much waylen!!

Pros:
Better throttle response, GREAT sound
Cons:
I purchased the Way Motor Works Intake for my non-S Cabrio and had it installed at MOTD. I was scheduled to have it installed Friday afternoon, but Way got my car in and installed it Wednesday night so I was able to enjoy it during the entire event. It was my first performance mod and I'm 110% satisfied with the purchase. I have better throttle response and the new sound is awesome.
Way is very knowledgable about MINIs and willing to take the time to explain things so you can make an informed decision about your purchase. This will be the first of many purchases from Way Motor Works.

The only person to touch my car other than the dealership is Way, at Way Motor Works...DDM Intake, WMW Heat Shield, Guages, painted breaks, even the the WMW exhaust system....all purchased at www.waymotorworks.com ..the products he sells are fantastic with good prices...Way is a very smart guy at what he does, and he will tell you what you want to fit what you're looking for. He isnt afraid to tell you how it is, unlike some people who "just want the sale"...he does what it takes to make sure you leave happy and keep future business. Great Job Way!

Great products and advice
Cons:

Way Motor Works installed a number of items on my 2005 MCSa at the 2008 MOTD including a WMW 15% pully, DDMWorks CAI, HSport Competition Rear Sway Bar and M7 Strut Tower Plates. I also got a ScanGauge II from Way while there. Way has great products and was extremely good about giving advice on the pros and cons of the various products.
Way did a great job with the installs of some fine products at good prices - Highly recommended!!

This is the best intake under 400 dollars. It is so nice to see a Vendor like Way Motor Works that still wrenches on cars and installs what they sell.

Way is great to deal with! Bought an ALTA Crank Pulley from WMW and he had the best price online. Listen boys and girls, shipping to Hawaii is not a pain! it should not be $20+ like some vendors would charge! Way is way honest. He gets his items out fast and at a reasonable shipping price. Highly Recommended. Thumbs up Way and will shop with'em in the future.
