Brought out the JCW today

Weather finally got better around here and decided it was time to break out the JCW. I have to say Kermit (as the kids call it) is quite a departure from the regular R53 we bought over winter. Power delivery is quite noticeable in the JCW even with the regular R53 having a 15% pulley. Now to get on installing all the extra parts I've bought over winter for Kermit..
