Hello :) new JCW owner here

[kyleJCW]

Hey people, had my JCW for about a week now and thought id join the forum and share my new ride. Took it on a dyno today and it produced 210bhp with 180lbft of torque at 1 bar (supercharger).

My JCW is a 52 and has had some modification including upgraded intercooler, decat, 15% reduction supercharger pulley, upgraded air filter and upgraded leads. She sits on 18" Alpina alloys which are immense. Also had a pretty expensive kenwood head unit and Harman Kardon speakers which blow you away.

Very nice! I love those Alpina alloys.

Cool!!!!!! - and I am obviously not in the slightest bit jealous ......... honestly.

The technical stuff was a little beyond me, but I'm guessing it drives like a beauty and leaves those other flashy sports cars behind at the lights - in a totally legal and safe way, obviously).

I want one! Nice wheels there...welcome to the forum btw.

That's a sweet car! I love the front bumper, color and wheels. Dislike the tail lights and wing. Wings don't belong on roofs. :/

Overall, thumbs up!

Are you serious? That's the standard 'S' spoiler... get a grip, for goodness sake.
