August. In the E90 the intercooler, cooling fan, air ducts, ecu and exhaust was changed.

In the F30 only intercooler and ecu.

If it includes larger front brakes, should be worth it. I am also very tempted to get the staggered 19" wheels, which I thought I will hold off until next tyre change. If I am getting the power kit, the bigger wheels make a good case for themselves.

This is how the power graph looks, before and after.
Its not there for the X3. They have been supposed to release it for a year, but I don't think anyone has got it yet.

I believe we'll be getting only the ECU and the brakes as we already have the Intercooler.
I'll get the MPPK once launched but I'd suggest stay away from those 19 inches as they can be a pain to drive and maintain in our roads.
You will get the ECU, intercooler and brakes.

You mean nobody has got it around the world yet? That's a dampener. They've mentioned it in their website though, so we can still keep our hopes up I suppose.

My bad,
I've been wrongly informed.
I spoke to another dealer today and was told that it's not happening in the near future.
quite different versions from two different dealers.
Is there any way to import it privately?

No, this is probably due to certain emission issues. Apparently, BMW has to get their models recertified / homologated if they sell officially.

I can recommend using Racechip ultimate with Bluetooth connect from my personal experience, works very well

Last I heard there was some homologation work going on. Will check and see if there's any possible date.

Click Bait: Read the tittle, MPPK kits are back.

Would love to have it done on X1, as power is never enough.

Mods: Can we change the title to reflect current scenario of sales stopped of MPPK.

Bye bye to warranty then

The whole point of getting the MPPK was to preserve warranty - otherwise there are many reputed tuners for 320d

Re: BMW India stops sale of M Performance Power Kits

A friend got the MPPK for his 5 series GT and it worked for the most part because the kit was orignally for the 5 series not specifically for the GT. The kit was imported and compared to the superchip he had got installed long back it was much better integrated.

He paid extra to get it done thru a BMW service dealer but it was all unofficial. Since then his GT has driven over 70k KM without many issues. There is a problem with the steering which is normally tilted offcenter but the car drives in a straight line. BMW people say the whole suspension assembly has to be changed and are asking upward's of 3Lac.
