Has anyone had problems with getting the Power Kit? My SA says he's getting it for me, but not sure if it's port or dealer installed.

Are you guys happy with the stock exhaust note with the power kit installed? Is the Performance Exhaust available yet?

Is the rear diffuser or any M Performance parts available yet?

Those that had an E92 with fog lights, then had them deleted with the F32 MSport pack: Do you miss your fog lights?

Thanks much!

Hi,

I have the PPK and MPE installed. The PPK definitely makes a difference , the MPE is a nice addition to improve exhaust sound/note (it's not as loud as the "old" MPE, the new MPE has two resonators built into the tips, I may take them out in spring).

I've ordered/installed a few M Performance parts
Rear Diffuser (ordered/but won't install until spring) , the current is NOT carbon fiber, I may wait for the CF one
Front lip (ordered/but won't install until spring) , looks very well made
Interior trim (dashboard, shifter, shifter surround) , looks great , only small gripe is the M Performance stitching which I personally don't like as much (may have the main piece retrimmed with Alcantara to take off the stitching)

As for the foglights, you just need to by the Euro switch as the actually wiring, bulbs etc are all installed. On the F3x platform you also need to code the rear foglights , but for someone who has E-Sys it won't take more than 5 minutes.
The front fog lights may be a retrofit as all the parts are available (grill/LED lights etc) , I plan to look into it in the spring

So they are not done at the port anymore I'm assuming? I'm doing the performance center delivery.

Did you drive the car at all with the stock exhaust? Thoughts on the sound if you did.

Where died you buy the rear diffuser? I can't find it on BMW's website.

As recently of this past week, my SA informed me the PPK and MPE are not yet available for port install because the supply is so low. The supply is expected to increase soon and thus, the port install program will be in effect. In fact, as I'm typing this, it could be going on as my SA has yet to inform me. My car is still in Bremerhaven. All is good with 335 deliveries. The shortage only applies to 435's.
Pricing for port install (performance delivery center) has not been announced either.

Great. Last question: the PPK is now 335hp with the 435?

I drove a non PPK 335 and it seemed a little slower than my N54 with the PPK. (I also wasn't pushing it hard as the SA was with me)

335 hp and I believe the red line is 7100, up from 7000.

It also creates a more pronounced "burble" from the exhaust when letting off the throttle. I'd imagine ppk combined with mpe creates awesome sounds.
