Hi Guys. I wanted some feedback on the kit from anyone who has done it? Does is make a huge difference? Are there any dyno results or tested times and speed that anyone, from experience, can confirm to back the claims. Spoke to BMW and they said power goes up from 240kw to 270kw and torque from 450nm to 500nm. Price is around R42k incl labour. Thanks :thumbs:

For less the 42K you can get more bang for buck !

A friend of mine has done it on his 340i, and with octane booster managed to make 272wkW and around 560Nm from his otherwise stock car.
He also ran a 13.1 at Tarlton on a Friday night.
I'd say the results speak for themselves.
B58 has not proven to be very responsive to JB and other piggy back tunes (from what I have heard thus far), so MPPK is definitely worth considering if you have the bucks.

For a new Car it makes sense, MPPK is worth it. When I asked about it on my 335i BMW actually said do not bother too much, car feels mostly the same on the N55 so I left it.. 272wkw is good power!!

Hello there,
i have done around 5 of these kits for customers. every single customer has been more than happy. it sounds wicked and it takes the power to the same as the M2! Unlike the 335i power kit this has big gains and the exhaust is a full exhaust and not just back box. if you thinking of it let me know i might be able to save you a few rand with our parts department.

Those M3s and C63s couldn't have been that fast with those times, or are you talking about the W204 C63 and E92 M3?
Also, were those Tarlton times done at S2S or on a prepped surface? Either way, it's a tad bit unbelievable for a 340i with just MPPK that is otherwise "stock"

I have the MPPSK on my 340i, it makes a different sound but I disagree on performance. I did a lap with a 440i without the kit, there was no difference. We pulled like twin. Only sound was different. I would also say be careful, because does not have proper support for the kit. My 340i is now acting up, its like i don't have the kit, it sounds worth than a 340i with just a performance exhaust and BMW cannot fix it. (they recently updated the software and the car is no longer performing). I even regret i have the kit. The price you were given, i doubt its for the full kit..... cos my one was around R70k.

The price is for a complete kit. You can purchase the rear silencer alone but not "part" of the kit. You may have added some other M cosmetic goodies in addition to the kit. As for the performance there has been a general consensus that it does make a difference. There may have been some other issue with your car.
