No, I mean either piggyback/flash. Do you know people who upgraded RB turbo running both flash and piggyback? I heard my Sweden fd said about that as neither piggyback nor flash can match with upgraded RB turbo, should run both to get the power. |

But since the PPK is a flash you can't add 20% on top of that and think you will get more than you would on a stock vehicle.

Powerkit = PPK I think it is the shortform those brothers talking about here right? If so, powerkit is an additional raditor + bigger & high frequency fan as well as upgraded ECU software to run this powerkit IMHO. |

It is a flash and some styling parts and an "engine silencer" for more sound. |

So with the PPK, once released, we are looking at 326 HP / 317 TQ throughout the powerband and in all gears right?

I've read similar assessments from the E90 owners who had it done... However, the Dinan tune seems to be more "impressive"... For me it's a cost/convenience thing...if I move out of the area, I'll probably get the PPK. If I stay near my current dealer, I'll get the Dinan.

I'm assuming both the PPK and the Dinan tune won't mess up comfort mode and eco pro correct?

Dinan, unsure...I would assume they will enhance the EPA #'s, and HAVE to keep the 3 modes, but we'll see...that's probably what's taking them so long. My current dealer would update ECU and reprogram Dinan since they are a Dinan reseller, and actually make $$ off of it...however, if I move, who knows. My ultimate preference is to maintain my 6/100k warranty+Maintenance Plan through BMW as long as possible...

Lol, dude, just drive and enjoy your car...it's not like it's a slouch without it. And the PPK will only sharpen it, won't make it a Viper or something

This.
I think my car feels a bit weak because I don't have my fan fully repaired yet.

I'll let you know if I notice the power increase with the new fan. I know that after it broke is felts weaker than a 328i. |

Awesome, keep us posted for sure. They partially fixed my fan so I'm wondering if a new fan would be better.

I actually read all the other threads and they said the fan was broken because of a bad temperature element. I don't know if this is true, but one of the mods said his car felt way better after they replaced the fan. I'm hoping that I don't have to get a new temperature element as well. Will let you know soon!
