The JCW kit will just be engine and exhaust mod. An M car would be substantially more than that. It would probably have a trick LSD (like on the M3) and even better suspension than what is already on the S. Maybe they will slot in a SMG gear box as well, or at least just change the gear ratios. I have read that M is running around in a car that easily produces 220bhp, and have plans for 240bhp. With that kind of power, surely if nothing else there would be some sort of LSD on the front wheel. Here's hoping!!!
