New 440i GC, is the MPPSK the most worth it?
I am looking for just a bit more power, nothing crazy that would void warranty or lower the life span of the car by any means. I was looking at the MPPSK and it looks like exactly what I’m looking for, just super expensive. Are there any tricks to getting the Power/Sound at a lower price point while keeping it under warranty?

Short answer is no
I'd wait till your warranty ends then flash mhd or boot mode and grab a midpipe. Don't be scared about tuning these engines many of us are running almost twice factory output without issues. Will it shorten your engines lifespan? Probably. But you're also not beating the crap out of it to get the same performance as you would a stock engine. My advice is to send it and save the money for unlikely repairs |

No tricks. You get what you pay for

Car is a 2019 440i GC, have a Zurich warranty. Looked into some stuff a bit more and think I’m gonna go the route of tuning post warranty.

I just got mine done. The dealer actually price matched the parts for the price I had found online so saved me $400. Also got comparitive quotes from the three dealers around me and they matched the price as well for the service. Still a little pricey but worth it for not voiding the warranty.

MPPSK exhaust is one of the best you can have. tune is conservative and probably not worth it if you're looking for best performance.

Akrapovic EVO is the closest I am aware of. And it costs as much as, or more than, MPPSK. Both are simply state of the art. If you want cheaper - you get cheaper.

You could get a quality full catback, high flow DP, and stage 2 BM3/MHD (which as a flash tune will add drivability changes better than MPPSK will) and save a grand vs MPPSK, especially if you take advantage of holiday sales.

There are exhausts that use the factory exhaust valve control. Off the top of my head that I'm sure about is the Turner motorsports exhaust they came out with a few months ago and the AFE mach force.
