My K & N Typhoon fits nicely under a JCW strut bar. 'Course it's about 7 years old and it might not be available any more

We do also. Ours is very close to the same size box as the OEM/JCW CAI.

Wow man that ^^^looks so close to what to my JCW stock box looks like! Just saw your dyno test sheet, was that comparing it to a JCW intake box or a regular mini cooper?

Yes,

We slapped on the JCW Tuning kit intake and we did not save the dyno numbers but I was there in the dyno booth and we saw a little gain in TQ's with the JCW intake but no real big HP gain. This was on the Cooper S and a factory JCW that was tested. Ours were stock pretty much. The JCW engine with tuning kit was better but not near out ECS intake when measured.

Dyno numbers are on the part itself linked here: https://www.ecstuning.com/b-ecs-parts/ecs-tuning-kohlefaser-luft-technik-intake-system/001849ecskt1/
