Best Place to Buy JCW Parts

Is there a good website around where you can find all of the JCW parts for the R52 that is based in the US. I have found websites that offer the full JCW tuning kit, and that is too expensive for me to buy at once. I want to be able to buy parts periodicaly and build up to the full JCW enging. I have found single parts such as this one - http://www.waymotorworks.com/john-co...ks-intake.html
And that will probably be the first part I buy, but I was just wondering if there was one website I could use with all of the parts that I need.

Looks like you've been to our site. We can sell you all the JCW parts. But bad news is if you buy all the parts individual you can't buy the JCW tuning software. MINI will only sell the software with the complete tuning kit. This is why most people go aftermarket as usually it is cheaper and makes more power.

We do offer ECU tuning but it won't be that JCW tune

I was under the impression the dealers could do a JCW tune if desired, with or without purchasing the kit.

Other couple of places are ECSTuning and bmwminipartsstore. I just recently got the jcw intake from ECS. They were a little cheaper and free shipping. I've order a bunch of stuff from Waymotorworks also.

Only on the R53, NOT on R56

Oops I guess I was up too late. Yes they can do R52 if they will, some do some don't. But we also offer the JCW tune if people send us their ECUs.

But he could save a lot by just doing a pulley intake and exhaust. That will give him as much as a JCW, without breaking the bank like a JCW.
We have a great package that is reliable, with great gains, and not crazy loud.

Yea, like Way says forget the expensive JCW kit and just piece up aftermarket parts for half the cost and more power.
