The anticipation is killing me and I'm going to have to go home now and see if they can get one tomorrow or if it has to be next week.

Dealer just finished the install and he told me I needed to sign a waiver that I acknowledge that my car requires 93 Octane.

Anyone asked to sign that?

Not me. MPPK doesn’t change the fuel requirement for the vehicle anyway, so not sure why they are asking that.

Looks like they wanted to make good use of your username.

Haha - I? don't know why that's my username but I? created it 10 years ago with my first bimmer. Anyways, I?'ve never used any other gas on any of my cars so I? didn't mind. Pretty sure they just used the form that printed when the coding was done and not sure it really goes anywhere.

I? didn't really feel the extra power or acceleration. Does anyone know if it takes more time? Kzang did mention he noticed it after the first tank of gas. Anyone else? The sport view does show 400/400

Give it a full tank use and allow for the break in. You should start to feel it.

Do you only feel it in sport mode or also in comfort?

In Comfort mode and Sport mode. ECO mode didn't feel much of a difference.
The changes are in characteristics of how the transmission shifts along with a more crisp acceleration and low end torquey punch.
