A member here who helped me code my F15 says he can do it. Check with someone who can code your vehicle.

I don't believe you can install, although there may be someone who has gotten around the system. The dealer gets a download code in the mail after you buy. They download it and install in your car.

I've read where some say the sound of the exhaust is different. The only way this can happen without changing the exhaust is by altering ignition timing/fueling/valve timing. Possible proof of true re-tuning. Additionally, it is interesting that BMW states, "not for vehicles with a hitch." That means, no towing. It means, the tune is on the edge of the engine's parameters/capabilities and putting an additional load on the engine could cause damage. To me, that means the manufacturer is claiming the maximum safe additional HP/TQ is 20/32.

For the hitching disclaimer I believe because with MPPK, the vehicle is "downshift" happy, correct me if I am wrong but isn't this bad when you are hauling load?
For the exhaust, yes the sound is a bit wee more aggressive and a bit throaty could be due to added boost and timing, plus the exhaust flapper is readily open |

It would be very interesting if coders can install this after someone purchases it from the dealer. Keep us posted!

So apparently ( for my dealer ) if I purchase any accessories from another BMW dealer, I can not have them installed. My Dealer will only install from accessories that are purchased directly with them. Anyone else purchase MPPK from GetBMWparts.com and have it installed at your local dealer?

That's what I'm planning on doing since I just ordered. That logic makes no sense or getbmwparts wouldn't be able to sell the power kit since you need dealer install

I had already asked them to match the pricing.. after they said no because it was below their cost.. I asked if it would be okay to purchase from another dealer and have it installed with them as long as I pay for the install... I guess I'll go over to another dealer for the install.

Such BS. Tischer is just like any BMW dealer and i highly doubt their cost is any different from any other BMW dealers. Don't forget you also don't have to pay tax with Tischer too since its out of state.

I just didn't want to argue with my dealership so I paid $1143 for the kit, and I'll get my SA to install it for free. She's awesome and loves me
