R56 just getting started!!

So three days ago I got a chance to test drive a 2012 hardtop JCW. I was expecting something more...... It had 90,000 miles on it look nice sound great, But was not impressed. It did not stick your head back in the seat like my S dose.
so far I have an AEM cold air system and hot air side muffler cancellation pipe on it. I have a blow off valve coming in the mail. Looking at a catless downpipe and a larger intercooler for next up grade. Is anyone using a RACE CHIP? Are they worth the money.... Suggestionsans?

Hello,
Was from below Boardman Ohio, now over here in Wadsworth. Charge pipe, intercooler. you have an N14 JCW engine so i would check the timing chain slack and get a carbon blasting. For piggyback tune with the N14 you can get chipwerke, lots of Audi guys like them, newer fro MINI.

N14/N18 JCW
