This is how 20 Hp look like.

DonJuan · 03-08-2019, 12:14 PM

Gettin' it done!

taseal · 03-08-2019, 12:15 PM

I wanna see the stickers! Lol cheap looking or a look actually nice?

And do you have MPE? You saw the other thread... I'm hoping mine works.... $350 was too hard to pass up for me and take the risk. Lol

Gotta tell me the difference! I'll be in your shoes next week.

Definitely a nice power bump! Haven't really pushed it hard (rush hour driving from the dealership to my house) but overall I can definitely feel more responsiveness, both on the pedal mapping and the shift points.

In sport mode, you can REALLY tell the difference, you hit that gas pedal and the thing just goes, everything is magnified.

I still have to try launch control.

More feedback as I go experimenting!

Crazy how I hear 20hp, but then hear this from everyone... hard to believe.

Does it sound diff? You have stock exhaust right?

and launch control? I thought that was only available in sport+ mode which we don't have.

You do if you have a M-Sport 😊
(I hear it can be also coded in)
It's not the 20 hp, I think it's the extra 30 lbs/feet of torque that makes it "feel" quicker.
I do have the stock exhaust, and I can hear a little more throaty sound but haven't determined if it's coming from the engine or the exhaust. Or it's just the placebo effect 😀
Per the MPPK tech specs, you do get a nicer sound and burble enabled in sport mode.

So I just went to the local dealer, and he looked up the price for install. 267... even better than the 330 I was told. no complaints.

Highly recommend RC GTS. It is money well spend. Or at least get the RCU.

I agree, I have one in our 328d, and it is money well spent.

Here's a short video of how quickly accelerates, it definitely feels more "alive".

If anyone is interested, here is a collection of my video clips of the different exhaust notes.

Stock

With MPPK

With MPPK warm - you can hear the gurgle.

With MPPK and MPE

Launch Control

The first thing I noticed in my brief life in the Bay Area is how expensive shops were. No wonder there is homelessness everywhere.

Is there launch control? (I see the video) I don't have launch control...

and is there sport+? Cuz I've seen people with sport+, but I don't have that either.
