    Last week we brought you the history of the modern JCW Tuning kit. Now that history is getting a new chapter. The JCW Engine Kit is indeed coming to the R58 Coupe and R59 Roadster later this year. The tuning kit will be the same 197 hp (200 bhp) kit found in other MINIs with 199 lb-ft of over boost between 1,800 and 5,000 rpm.

    The kit comes with:

    • Sports exhaust with chrome finish tailpipes with the laser etched JCW logo
    • Adapted air filter
    • Modified engine control unit
    • John Cooper Works badges Performance data
    Likewise the JCW Suspension will also be coming to the Coupe later this year. The roadster won’t be getting the suspension however due to the assumed low volume they would sell.
