Drivetrain R60 JCW exhaust is here!
#27
I have noticed some power difference but the bigger jump came from my custom high flow intake so it is hard to say what you might see. The intake greatly improved throttle response and low end power..the exhaust seems to have increased high RPM power...but still getting a feel for it. Planning to pay more attention today. Will report back here tomorrow or before.

mpg
I just got the car this past friday with 6miles on it. I now have 700 miles on it! So i drive approx. 800-1000 miles a week! One of the reasons i bought this car was the Gas Mileage.
Can you report back if you have seen an increase or decrease in your avg. MPG with the exhaust.
I wanted a car that gav me 30mpg+ and was still fun to drive and i couldn't find anything that matched the MINI!
But now i want a little more power and more sound out of the car to feel manly lol My weekend drive is a AUDI s5 So ya countryman feels slow ;-)

Here is a picture of the first prototype. Works and sounds great although it is not really a cold air intake just high flow intake. With turbo there is debate about weather CAI makes sense...high flow (done) and intercooler (later after waranty) is what I plan to do. This intake increased MPG even while I increased aggressive driving

I've the JCW exhaust on my countryman but mine is an cooper S all 4.
Why the exhaust is made for countryman cooper S and not for all4, while it's the same ?
What's the reference of the cat-back because I just have the exhaust and the sound is different, less louder ? (I think it comes from the intake too)

We have no information on the upcoming JCW R60 model so it would be speculation at this point. Our system does not list this exhaust as a "retrofit" but the verbal descriptions are not always accurate. When the JCW R60 information becomes available, we will be able to confirm the details.

That is listed the same way in our catalog. However, when looking under an S and ALL4, everything looks to be identical (and stock exhaust part numbers are the same). We lowered the stock system down a bit without cutting it and test fitted the JCW rear muffler. The initial thoughts were that there may have been an issue with hitting the rear differential bracket but it seems to fit perfect. While we have not done an official install on an ALL4, this system looks to be compatible.

If you only have the back section (about axle back) then you would be missing the intermediate pipe which removes a resonator and comes all the way from the cat that is just after the downpipe. The sound difference is probably this and the intake. Look on real oem for the pics.

Finally took some video from the drivers seat, 70mph with a slight increase at the end to 75 or so. I will try to get a 0-60 video up soon. http://youtu.be/xQcl4QXOrbg

SewellParts.... What's the difference between your JCW Exhaust and the JCW one listed on this link with a MSRP of $786?

Great question. The aero kit has a different tip design compared to the standard rear bumper on the R60. The aero kit tips have brackets and screw into the back-side of the bumper then the exhaust slides into the secured tips.
