Depends on the year and the amount of JCW equipment on the JCW car could be a far as 158hp MCS to 208hp JCW or as close as 163hp MCS to 196 hp JCW.... I believe. Assuming both models are stock.

an 06 mini s has 168, jcw has over 200 like 205 i think......

hes faster regardless unless u have mods.

the jcw package is

1. jcw brakes
2. jcw head
3.jcw exhaust
4.jcw intake
5.jcw injectors
6.jcw 11% reduction pulley
7. jcw ecu is programmed a little differently
8. JCW SUSPENSION

I think that should pretty much take car of that debate, you could have just googled 06 mcs jcw hp hahaha
