I have been trying to find out if I should do the same. There are those that went straight to the MPPK and are happy. There are those that went straight to the RC Ultimate and are happy. There are those running them both. I would love to have a clear understanding on which way to go: MPPK and sell my RC Ultimate MPPK + RC Ultimate (is there a benefit?) Stay with the RC Ultimate |

I also didn't want to have to remove the RC overtime I brought it in for service...even though it takes 5 minutes tops, its still a pain. Im really satisfied with the MPPK, and I thought about keeping the RC...but is it really good for the engine to run both? I highly doubt it. MPPK is all I need. very pleased. The RC is less than half the price though, so if you want to save $$...its a great option. |

I also don't look forward to removing the chip. If the machine feels lighter than with the RC then it seems like it might be a better tune. Not really worried about the money if it improves the machine. Thanks.... |

@wwanthony , I have the most mods than others in this forum.
I took my car for service and non-engine warranty work a few times already. And I never take off my tunes. It is all preferrence. Some like MPPK, some don't. Some like RC on top of MPPK, some don't. But, if you are worry about warranty, remember that they have to proof that it is the tune that indeed causing the damage.

I just bumped mine to C after 1000 miles on B. Very noticeable and added quite a bit more punch. Not sure if it's as smooth as B, but hopefully it smooths out as I put more miles on it.

It did get better for me after I drove it in C for a week or so. I just installed MPPK and will add the RC on top of it some time next week.

Thanks for this, I just installed the RaceChip on my 2011 X3 35i M-sport. The instructions with the RC are less than clear, but this confirmed for me which sensors I thought it should connect to. I also installed an Afe intake at the same time, still in the initial adaptation phase, but it feels more powerful already.
Any other complimentary mods people suggest with the RaceChip? Just for a daily driver...and my X3 was built 7/2011, so the MPPK is not applicable according to BMW... thanks |

I think the RC is great by itself.

Going in for my first service with my X5. Does everyone remove their race chip before going? I removed the box and tucked the rest into the side wall. Thoughts?

But just to be safe, just leave the dummy plug.
