MPPSK VS MPE+Dinan Midpipe + BM3

I have seen some post on this but I think I want to put my situation out so I can get some opinions on this.

My current car is a 2017 CPO 440 with 18k miles, warranty ends in july 2022. MPPSK is currently on sale for 2.8K + labor. the car currently have MPE, I'm thinking about pairing the Dinan midpipe with it and do BM3 stage 1 which is gonna cost around 1100k. I'm thinking about keeping my car for about 4-5 yrs till about 70-80k miles.

which one will make more sense for my situation? Not sure if the car will have warranty issues in the next couple years as the mileage is pretty low, so not sure if the warranty will come in use. The MPPSK will put a pretty big dent in my wallet, any long term BM3 user can give me some insight on BM3 reliability?

As soon as you flash it with an aftermarket tune (i.e. BM3), you're putting any remaining warranty into question... specially when it comes to the power-train. My suggestion would be to get the MPPSK and sell the MPE... still an upgrade in power, albeit not as much as BM3. But at least you know your warranty is intact.

you don't really get the a burble tune from Dinan which you get from MPPSK and BM3, I was thinking about Dinan tune as well but I think BM3 or MPPSK is better.

i have bm3 got it just for the burbles.
not going to lie. gets annoying if u don't have it set up right. i have the OTS with a muffler delete and non stop sounds even when slowing down.. after 1 month i want it where it pops 2-3 times when i actually push it.

To clarify for others that find this, Dinan WILL void the related part of your warranty. Dinan offers a matching warranty to cover the BMW parts for NEW car warranty only
