CTGP uses Wiimmfi; Retro Rewind uses Retro WFC. MKW-SP focuses on game/practice improvements. Install each as its own complete package, and use its launcher rather than combining files from different distributions.
1.03.1190 all-inclusiveMario Kart WiiZIP · mod data + Wii launcher
Custom tracks, time-trial features and Wiimmfi racing through CTGP Revolution.
Wiimmfi · built into CTGP
Requires: A working Mario Kart Wii retail disc, Wii or Wii U vWii, Homebrew Channel and an SD card. The official download page specifies at least 768 MB; this newer all-inclusive package is larger, so allow the unpacked size below plus update space.
Compatibility. PAL / NTSC-U / NTSC-J discs. Korean discs are excluded by the project. Wii Mini and Dolphin are not offered for this package.
Storage and launch. Extract the complete package to the SD root and launch its CTGP app through Homebrew Channel with the disc inserted. Preserve the supplied ctgpr, apps and riivolution structure. Use the CTGP updater before online play; back up existing CTGP settings and My Stuff first.

Original package preserved and hash-verified in the local archive. Large packages open the original distribution host; save them on a PC or phone and extract them to SD.
A large custom-track distribution with its own launcher, updater and Retro WFC online service.
Retro WFC · separate from Wiimmfi
Requires: A working Mario Kart Wii disc, SD storage with space for the full unpacked distribution, and homebrew access on Wii or vWii. This is the full installation, not the one-version update archive.
Compatibility. PAL / NTSC-U / NTSC-J. Keep the supplied region payloads together. This console package is distinct from the Dolphin Wheel Wizard launcher and Wii U Menu forwarder.
Storage and launch. Extract the full ZIP to SD root, keeping RetroRewind6, riivolution and apps together. Launch /apps/RetroRewind/boot.dol in Homebrew Channel. The bundled RetroRewind.wad and RetroRewindVWii.wad are optional model-specific shortcuts, not required for this HBC route; do not interchange them. Preserve custom assets and saves before updating.

Mario Kart Wii Service Pack adds practice, ghost, HUD and quality-of-life features.
Practice / local features · do not assume CTGP or Wiimmfi parity
Requires: Your Mario Kart Wii game disc and a homebrew-enabled console. Preserve your existing saves and My Stuff separately before installing this distinct mod.
Compatibility. Wii and vWii. The project supports the four retail region versions, including NTSC-K; select the appropriate disc. Most Gecko codes are incompatible with its altered memory map.
Storage and launch. Extract the complete ZIP to the storage root. Launch /apps/mkw-sp/boot.dol through Homebrew Channel and retain any mkw-sp data directory created by the app. This build is a standalone app rather than a Riivolution XML pack.
