I just picked up an 07' JCW R56 and am curious what you guys would suggest to increase the performance a bit with the parts currently on the vehicle. I'd entertain a new FMIC but I don't want to get into a bigger turbo/injectors as this is a fun DD.

I'm assuming I can get a tune that out performs the JCW tune but who would you suggest?

Thanks for having me on the forum! Cheers!

 

Intake, hot side turbo pipe, wheels/tires & suspension. Maybe an exhaust and a tune. You won't gain anything with an FMIC without a tune.

 

I can't say much regarding performance but since it's new to you I would suggest that you secure your investment by ensuring that things like the timing chain are in tip top shape and the intake has been blasted. Once these maintenance items are done you can then invest in performance with some confidence. Sorry bit of a bummer eh but I'd hate to see you drop a couple of grand only to have the chain break and watch your investment go poof.

Oh and where are the pictures of this fine machine so we can live vicariously through you?
