I just received my new Autoweek [Sept 1]. Check out Driver's Log for 3 preliminary, mini reviews of the JCW Mini. I was hoping to be persuaded to either step up to the line and buy the JCW package or let it go. After reading this, I'm still not sure. :???: :???: :???:

what handling improvments does the JCW make. iwasnt aware they addressed that isse.

also is there any pics of the rear of a JCW kit..with the "exhaust tips"


"The supercharger whine is equally refined, handling is a notch tighter and the engine a shade quicker. "
