    Just picked up a 13 JCW this weekend. Some mods are done to it. Haven’t gotten it in the air yet to see everything underneath. I know when I hit the sport button it crackles and pops, not sure if it’s stock or not.

    Only a couple things I can think of doing is looking at options on recirculating/bov and wastegate upgrades to the stock turbo. Turbo blanket and look at the hard pipes and maybe the intercooler. [​IMG]

    Welcome to M/A!

    Nice looking MCS! If DetroitTuned has added some mods to your car, you can take it to the bank that it has been modded right. Again, welcome and Happy New Year!

    They have always been my go to parts supplier and are the best in the business, IMHO.

    If you are interested, go to Minis on the Dragon in NC this Spring. They will be there doing mods. Tell Chad [the owner] I said "hi" and that I'll see him there.

    Found my first issue to figure out. No power at the cigarette lighter. 12v at fuse but not at the wires at the lighter. Check with the car running. Now to see where it ties to a ground or something. I was hoping to have 12v at the switch. And just replace the switch. But nothing can be easy.

    Did anyone use a vampire clip on the back side of the cigarette lighter? If so they may have cut the wire
