Janne's M Performane Power Kit (MPPK) 335i N55 installation - F34 GT

Spiff7 · 12-10-2013, 10:20 PM

I just took delivery of my 2014 335 m sport yesterday and was told there is no PPK available. Is this the new tune for cars produced after 7/13? Will this be available in USA?

nice

Completely agree

It will be available next year in the USA...the JB4 is available right now and it adds twice as much power as the PPK for half the cost and allows you to delete any codes and avoid detection by techs.

Nice write up, definitely thinking of getting this. I was just not sure if the cost for the MPPK was worth it, well since winter is here, I have until spring to think about it.

This tune is primarily just a factory ECU tune. This is something that should have been standard on the car from BMW for this generation. BMW hasn't increased the HP rating on these cars for 6 years now.

Basically, this is a rip-off from BMW. These engines should be making 340BHP from the factory without breaking a sweat.

You could get a lot better 3rd party tunes for the N55 for the same price. Yes, the warranty issue is a slight concern. However, the warranty voiding would only apply to parts of the drivetrain affected by the tune if the case arose.

nice pictures, the f34 looks great in silver

I agree, I don't like the way BMW is implementing these tiny hp/performance packages from year to year

It's new, good lokking and I like the space whish is bigger compared to F30 and F31. X3 is too big. Really no fan of the X-models.

Yes and as the tune is sold by BMW as M-Performance brand it is recommended by BMW to notify the insurance company the car has been tuned by BMW.

Yes it's the new version for cars produced after 7/13. Don't know if it would be available i USA, ask your dealer.

qdtjant · 12-11-2013, 01:41 AM

Thank you for all kind words. I like the look of the car and the extra power. Hope we will have some snow here in Sweden so I can experience the xDrive and the extra power :-)

M-terkait · 12-11-2013, 02:11 AM

i dynoed my car with mppk only got near 295hp/314tq ~ 340hp/370tq
which could be real that they just corrected the numbers.

Apl440i or 335d? · 12-11-2013, 06:26 AM

Loveley car, great write up.

Teutonic · 12-11-2013, 09:46 AM

Congratulations and enjoy the new car in good health!

I like the kit and I do believe that is a nice "way to go".
The pedals are nice too, however, I find the metal pedals being very dangerous, especially in a climate where you do get snow...

SCOTT26 · 12-11-2013, 02:54 PM

What a great car , the 3er Gran Turismo is currently exceeding sales projections.
The car is very popular in Europe.

Sharp_Cai · 12-11-2013, 03:57 PM

3GT is more haveier than the F30, and looks like a crossover to me. I would get the 535 GT instead for more space.

Yes it is and I hope BMW will develop more M Performance parts for the F34.

Vervain · 12-12-2013, 10:48 AM

What a beautiful car! Surprised to hear that the power increase is more, at 250kW!

Alex57r · 12-18-2013, 02:08 PM

Great looking car. Does anyone know if the PPK is available in the US?

gordon627 · 12-30-2013, 06:31 PM

I was waiting for it too in the US and looks like it's available. Anyone can get it cheaper than $1,250?

$1,250 is a great deal! Curious what invoice is though...
