I'm not the best person to comment since my truck was delivered with the MPPK installed but I posted a document from BMW about the MPPK software lowering 0-60mph by .5 seconds which is significant. The published numbers are underrated which seems correct with the half a second drop to 60mph and also dinan's dyno of a mppk car.
Everyone says that it changes the way the exhaust sounds with the MPPK. The delivery specialist thought I had the 50i when they were pulling in my X5 because he said it sounded different from the other 35i
MPG shouldnt be affected. Def. not going to improve it giving its nature.
What i like about the MPPK is the fact that it alters other areas of the car besides peak numbers. Think of what hitting Sport mode does to the car currently and the MPPK takes that up another notch in terms of feel and power.
