Hi All, good to be here! Just picked up my new ‘21 Clubman JCW on Friday! Really enjoying it! I see a lot of custom ideas and performance parts for the S, but don’t see much on the JCW Clubman all4. From what I’ve read, there’s a fair amount of difference in the parts, I wasn’t sure if it’s always a universal swap of parts between clubmans. Specifically, I was curious about:
1) What’s the best performance drop in filter? Does K&N not make one for a ‘21 JCW? Their site doesn't show any options for '20 or '21s. Not ready to pull the trigger on a big air box swap. Does anyone run just no box and a cone? Temps an issue?
2) What’s the best piggyback? I see tons of vids on the performance gains on the S, but is the JCW pretty much maxed out at 306 horses? I haven’t seen any talk of chips/tunes for the clubman JCW. Anyone installed one and have some dyno results, data, or recommendations?
3) Wheel spacers. Would love to improve my stance a bit and have my wheels to stick out just a touch more, especially in the rear. Anyone recommend a good size/brand?

Your F54 is a beauty, congrats. Regarding more power the engine has potential for sure but now asany options as a non-JCW variant. Check out:
for an option for a bit more power.
For spacers I plan cked up 10mm spacers (Part# D210-2027) from Dinan but you need 40mm lug bolts as stock is 28mm and you need to account for extra length now.
Thanks for the vid and recommendations on the spacers, will look into those! For the piggyback, it seems they used the remus powerizer, I read somewhere it is just a rebranded racechip. I was actually looking into the jp4, dinan, nm engineering and racechip. It seems racechip has 3 options for the F54 which is great: https://www.racechip.us/shop/mini/cl...-331lb-ft.html I just wish there were dyno sheets or real world feedback from people before dropping that sort of coin. Have just seen mixed results online with the cooper s. Want to choose the one with the best curve and hp/torque gains.
I ended up getting the Racechip GTS Black, but haven't installed it yet, been waiting to get past the break-in period. They only claim about 20hp and 40nm torque increase, but thought it was worth it for the cost at the time. They were having a sale and got a good price break off of it along with a coupon cabin cash back deal. Also got a draggy and hope to report back on 0-60, and 1/4 mile time differences with and w/o.
