MINI Mod Comparison Spreadsheet
I did a quick search and didn't see anything similar off-hand so tossing this in here.
I'm rather lousy at tracking details of things and often end up having to look the same thing up umpteen times. So I made a basic spreadsheet to track mods and be able to compare them side by side. Figured someone else might have the same issue and might find it useful.
Feel free to suggest/remind me of additional ones I missed and/or other comparison points to consider.
If folks are interested I'll try to remember to post the more or less finished version (never fully finished, always something new) once I'm done with mine.

There wasn't anything on that one yet, just an empty starter template if someone wanted one.
I've started filling out mine, attached. It only has exhaust and downpipes (for the most part) so far but gives an idea. Also this is for 2007+ S models, with some that are 2009+ JCW specific so isn't a universal list/compatibility.

Corrected upload to the last since I can't edit that part. A couple of the DPs were wrong.
I'm hoping to finish 1-2 tabs a night. I'll probably add brake sets on it too. So I might have an initial full version posted next week sometime.

Updated with what info I've been able to find so far for exhaust, downpipes, BOVs, ECU tunes, & FMICs. I may add more fidelity to the ECU tab later with what each says they update.
Keep in mind this is a *mostly* objective listing based off flat numbers from vendor/manufacturer sites and a bit from reading here. Personal experiences/opinions of parts are welcome but attacking/flaming is not. Take it up with the various sites.
Links to additional stats definitely welcome.
So far for my personal opinion I'm leaning a bit towards and Alta exhaust (or JCW if what's stock, for now), Evolve or maybe Alta DP (w/cats), Alta diverter (maybe DV+ with Alta spring), BattleTune ECU, & Wagner FMIC. I like the Akrapovic but too pricey. If I go pricey there's one I haven't been able to find yet, a Gab**** that's about $1,500 if found overseas or so (the 'exciting' version unless it switches between two settings). It's on YouTube.
