2005 JCW Cooper S To Get HP Increase (Gabe).

Nothing has been confirmed yet but it would appear that the 2005 JCW kit for the MCS will be adding some power. We've been hearing figures from several sources that the 2005 kit will have an output from anywhere between 210hp and 220hp. The one thing that we've consistently heard from all our sources is that this new found power will be made available to current JCW owners for around $500 plus installation. However there are no details on what exactly the $500 will buy or the actual price of the 2005 kit.

While it's important to note that nothing has been made official yet I would expect we'll be able to confirm this shortly.

As reported previously JCW is planning on releasing a number of accessories later in the year. The first to come state side were the 18" wheels in March of this year. Next up will be the carbon fiber dash board (not the currently available set of stickers but the one seen on the MC40) to be released in August. After that should be suspension components and a brake kit among other things. Expect news on these items shortly.
