it would have been interesting to see how a basic bolt-on car compared to a JCW and GP some of us would love to know whether or not we made the right call by not checking off the $6k option

being a GP owner I will say this.... it's hands down a better car than the S with JCW. The balance, the response.... it's what the Mini should be from the factory. Of course mine is modified but I am diseased

I would love to know as well, since the number that I have and the JCW's number are pretty close.

But again, they are from different dynos, dates, and lots of variable factors involved.

May be next time.

Great test!
This should practically be a stickied thread, since discussions of numbers like these crop up all the time.
Can't wait for the future test results.

I wasn't aware of that subform, it's in my bookmark now.
