Also, BMW North America prevents them from selling US sourced PPK kits to Canadians.

The SA recommned I shop locally, which I did. Best quote I got is 6 hours of labor for the PPKV2 (my car has been flashed with the latest DME one week ago). The parts for my VIN came out out $2144CAD. Total with taxes is $3362.

I asked if the cooling parts could be installed separately (my only interest as Im getting a Cobb AP3 soon), and this is not possible.
This PPK is much cheaper and costs a fraction of the BMW version:

You can flash it yourself and always go back to stock as well!
