Just purchased a 2016 JCW
Hi Everyone!
We just purchased a 2016 JCW F56 with 13K in white. I don't actually have it yet but am very excited to get it home and do some mods. I'm an active member on the Club Sea Ray forum as we are boaters but hopefully I will be able to provide some insight here as well after some time.
We traded in our 2015 X5D m-sport so this will be a change! Can't wait to be zipping around Texas/
I'm always open to other's ideas so share away!
Josh

Welcome, any mods you have in mind? Dinantronic Tune (aka Dinan) and intake would be my first.

It's going to be my wife's car so she is doing the following...
Changing most of the aesthetic bits to speedwell blue from JC Pro
The tires have white Dunlop lettering so she wants those reversed/replaced.
This one doesn't have the heated seats... I would like to add them if possible, trying to research if/how this is possible.
I am interested in the Tune and Intake... The tune is pretty straightforward... what intake is the best? I'm not keen on the open filter type but if that's what is best then I will do that.
We will also have some paint correction done and Xpel applied and probably CQuartz (waiting on the quote)
Then I will tint the windows and sunroof
Pretty basic things but I'm sure all of this will take a month just due to scheduling and dropping off the car and stuff.
What else do you all recommend?

Try this for the heated, some guys did it on the Gen 2 MINIs ;https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...8-mcs-r56.html
They used this kit: https://www.ecstuning.com/Search/SiteSearch/IBHS1/
Most popular for lower cost is burger, forge, or NM Engineering. High end is Eventuri.

Thanks! Give me a month and I'll order a few things from you. I've got to get all of this petty stuff out of the way and keep the wife happy!
So... Eventuri Intake, Dinan Tune... do I need to upgrade exhaust?
