Need Help on JCW CAI upgrade for Clubman S!!!!
Hey folks,
Anyone added a JCW intake to a Clubman S R55?
What can I expect in terms of sound, performance gains?

I wanted to have a bit more engine growl , but don't want the BOV whioosh sound.

Hoping the JCW will do that for me.
Thanks!!

Honestly, you won't notice different. I put the conical JCW intake on my JCW Clubman and noticed nothing.

i noticed a better intake growl at 3500+ and the DV was louder with the windows down but can't comment on peformance because it was put on with the Stage 1 upgrade.

If you want growl, definitely exhausts!

FYI, I don't know what year you have, but the JCW intake will not fit 2011 and 2012. I heard it will if you buy the older style intake bottom.
