I upgraded to an aluminum intake manifold so no need for this stuff.. it is off my 2013 n18 r58 jcw.
the noisemaker delete pipe fits perfect and is not a janky tiny ebay one. Im also including a boost tap so you can run an ACTUAL boost gauge. The intake manifold i DID cut off a corner non used mount in order to gain access to the coolant pipe flange without having to remove the entire intake manifold.
135$ shipped for everything to lower 48x. Paypal only. Absolutely doesn't effect it in any way..ifmt actually helps if thr time comes and you have to replace the tstat or coolant pipe.
pm or respond to this post.
Stay safe N mod on !!!!!

this manifold is slightly different than the one on my 2013 Countryman S, no? but should fit?
I was under the impression that the JCW manifols had a little better flow inside.
and, well, that tap would be great, as I'll def need one w @noahnole 's TruBoost controller. unless im mistaken and his goes after the turbo?
Havent built a turbo car in about 20yrs. and that was a Honda. ;-)
Trying to build the best canyon carver I can on my limited budget.
but im gonna have to get a hose anyways, and thats like $60 as is...
(found an AEM cold air on FB for $350)
recommendations and opinions welcome

Idk about the manifold honestly but I'm pretty sure it is the sane as yours. but the boost tap is good for auxiliary boost sources as it makes it easy and is alot less likely to create a vacuum leak.
BTW aem intake is garbage imo. The air ram is a good option but then your very limited on what strut bar you can use ALSO the aem metal tube is a small diameter vs most other intakes.. imo go with an ebay silicone tube and mount a velocity stack filter onto your mafs.. a cold air intake does very little to iats on an intercooled engine. The intercooler determines the iat and unless your intake is right next to your exhaust, it doesn't matter. aem 🤮
aaaaaaand a metal intake pipe only gets heat soaked too and becomes a hot air intake..

I forgot the pipe had a sliiiiight cut in it , not even through 1x ply but I put rtv over it so it wouldn't continue to happen. The pipe is so large it interfered with the plastic panel behind it..
ille lower the price for it and make it worth your while..
if your interested i could do 70$ shipped for the delete pipe.. it is from the cosmo brand kit , definitely the best one I've found.. was the only kit that actually replaced the most restrictive part ,that long plastic tmap pipe.
