We expect to receive them tomorrow or Friday. We will do finish work on them and start shipping a couple of days after we receive them. I haven't gotten specific tracking info so this is my estimate. Those on the list should expect calls soon! I'll post updates.

Great news thanks Alex!

In terms of finishing, what do you guys do? Any chance in having it finished in black? I know thats probably not possible but figured i'd ask.

thx... can't wait

I wouldn't sweat this too much, just get a rattle can of hi-temp engine paint in a nice matte-black or crinkle black finish and have at it. Should take all of 30 minutes and will last for years. Probably cost you less than $8.00, too - pretty easy on the wallet!!

I have a 2012 Clubman S on order with November delivery date.

Will intercooler fit on 2012's? If yes can I still get in on this group buy?

Thanks

Yes they ahve been reported to fit. Unfortunately the group buy sign up ended in July. The intercoolers are going to be on sale for regular 749$ pricing in a few days.


Everyone else please watch our for my telephone call in the next few days.

Everyone has been contacted if they were on the group buy. Pricing is back to normal @ $749. Thanks to everyone who participated in the group buy! Let me know if you have any questions. The install video is on youtube and should be very helpful.

Are there any issues with putting on the 2011? Do I have to shave up the brake ducts or anything?

Just got mine installed and the new tune uploaded, car is noticeably faster now! :D

I got it in while in my parents' driveway since I'm visiting, didn't even lift the car to install it. :P I didn't have one bit of trouble relating to the intercooler itself.
