Edit: Ok, got the dealer to add retrofit M performance sports brakes. And it’s made a significant difference. My setup though is full F85/86 bbk on an F15, and that worked fine. Coding was done via ISTA which is a pain as you need to have all modules software updated too. Last edited by R4ndy; 02-01-2023 at 11:31 PM.. |

MPBK requires coding Tony's kit does not require coding That has me a bit confused since Tony's kit utilizes bigger calipers and i assume the the master cylinder would need a recalib due to the pistons. What about just going with a front 4 piston caliper? my thinks i wouldn't need coding for such a change?

[QUOTE=shimmy23;29979802]I've read this:

What about just going with a front 4 piston caliper? my thinks i wouldn't need coding for such a change? Not sure why you think Tony’s kit doesn’t need coding. I used the Porsche 6/4 pot calipers and his recommended rotos and found it much better post coding. I’m sure if using the 4 pots in front and leaving a single piston rear caliper (bmw M upgrade) requires coding then it stands to reason more pressure would be required to get the most from the 6/4 combo. I also would upgrade lines or at least have very good condition factory ones to run higher pressure. |

Ok, so the F85/F86 6 pot do bolt on? Want to clarify before buying.
Also, the 4pot upgrade rear? That bolts in as well ? 4 pot front isn’t what I’m looking for, I need more to handle my mods. Thank you for the help !!! Fitting them on a 2017 X5/F15 |

The 4 piston rear kits are the same, again as long as you’re using the F85/86 rear rotors. |

Fellas, to clarify, half of my customers keep stock brakes coding and are super happy with the pedal/brakes feel, other half gets it coded and are happy with that as well, anyone can benefit from coded mbrakes or keep the comfort of stock brakes, strictly subjective. F85 brake are an excellent upgrade, bolt right up, but i do still recommend getting 4 piston rear for looks and performance to match
