BMW Springfield has it for $1,326.18 installed plus tax so I would say your in the right ballpark.

I paid about $1,400 installed after tax, so that sounds reasonable.

Check out Dinan as an alternative, it's $1000 more but also twice the boost. BMW authorized Dinan dealers will install.

got the MPPK and MPE installed on my new 2017 f15 x5 and couldn't be more happy. well, that's not true.

I then added the race chip to the mix, and boy oh boy, what an even more fun time to be had by all. excellent all around!

Definitely need to install MPPK

Just uploaded this video taken in Autobahn from my X35i with MPPK and MPE installed.
As you can see the car pulls up to speed limiter (245km/h) and takes 10secs from 150-200.

1st Post. I just added the MPPK to my 2016 X5 M Sport and all can say is Wow!! The car should have been setup this way from day 1 from BMW. $865 from EBay and $180 for the install from my local BMW Dealer. Money well spent.

I'm looking to add this to my X5 Sdrive model. Has the price changed and does anybody know a dealer to go to that will give me reasonable prices to purchase and install? I'm from Northern California (Bay Area). Also being in CA where we have to smog our cars eventually, will this cause any issues when the time comes?

Thanks!
Jeffrey

It's only about $20 more for me to take it to the dealer for the install opposed to having it coded remotely. I'll go that route to have the added insurance in case something were to go awry.

First, can you really tell a difference in accelerating from 45mph to around 85mph? Most are saying yes - it is noteworthy.

Secondly, and this is your question, in comfort mode under MPPK, is the drivability maintained? I do not want an edgy M type driving experience until I shift into Sport or Sport+.

Thirdly, not interested in a louder / burbly / muscle car exhaust note. The responses on this issue are a bit mixed as I have read them.

Lastly, is the reliability of the engine impacted with MPPK? There are some posts suggesting yes as indicated by the MPPK not being available with a trailer hitch installed as MPPK pushes the engine to its "tune limit". I do not buy that at all. Take a look at what the Ford Raptor is pushing out with a 3.5 liter V6. I know, apples to oranges, but the increase strikes me as modest.

So, MPPK drivers, what will we really experience?

Update - so I got around to reading the 2014 Product Information pdf that Kzang posted and it answered the question about exhaust note - it is enabled / enhanced when in Sport mode - Good News. Also, it possibly addressed the trailer hitch issue in that the MPPK install should not be done in conjunction with an X5 sDrive - the xDrive is not prohibited. That suggests to me that it is some issue other than the engine has been tuned to the limits.
Can you please link the production information PDF. I tried to search for it and had no luck. Thanks!

My impatience set in and I had WarpedDrive install my MPPK remotely last night. Everything went according to plan with the flash. On my drive in to work this morning, the throttle response definitely seemed to be sharper and the exhaust sounded great at wide open throttle on the interstate.

Getting this tank moving feels more effortless now. I'm looking forward to getting some more seat time in this afternoon. I bought from a member on here for $670 and install was $150 so for $820 I'm happy.
