The Auto is geared significantly lower than the manual in first through fourth gears! I thought it was just a lower final drive ratio for the auto combined with taller gearing in all forward gears. But that's not the case. Here's how it breaks down: 1st Steptronic 15.4% shorter 2nd Steptronic 9.5% shorter 3rd Steptronic 8.0% shorter 4th Steptronic 7.6% shorter 5th manual 2.3% shorter 6th manual 12.2% shorter So the auto has at least a 7.6% advantage in any gear lower than 5th, and a whopping 15% advantage in 1st gear (plus the torque multiplication until the torque converter locks up). The only place where the manual would have a clear advantage is in 6th gear acceleration without downshifting. No wonder people on here are saying that the autos launch harder... No wonder the E9x 335i auto is only 0.2 seconds slower 0-60 mph, where in the E46's the difference was 0.5-0.6 seconds, and 0.6 seconds for the E9x 328's. Or to put it another way: The Steptronic is built for the street, the manual is built for the Autobahn. OK, back to the PPK...

Thanks Notempo. Does anyone know why the ppk is lower upgrade for MT compared to AT. That implies a concern BMW have around MT but not for AT. But it's the AT guys that have the transmission concerns at larger power with unofficial upgrades?

I wonder if there is a way to trick the PPK software into thinking the car is an auto? I'd say it's unlikely since it is probably just a different version of the software based on VIN.

I want to get the PPK V2 with cooling for my car but when I went to the dealer they said they don't do the cooling upgrade for the M Sport?
My car is a Jan 08 Build 335i N54 with AT and M sport package, seems kind of weird why the cooling kit wouldn't be available for it? Any one have insight or knowledge?

Hi, does anyone know if installing the additional cooling parts i.e aux radiator and fan requires the ECU tune as well?
From what I read in the thread it does require the ECU install as well? Thanks

The auxiliary cooling is purely mechanical; no need to code the ECU. Only coding needed would be if you want the horsepower gains the PPK kit advertises, then you need to use software that comes with the kit. If you only want the cooling portion though, you don't need to buy the PPK; the secondary radiator is available as a kit by itself: http://www.ecstuning.com/BMW-E90-335...nce/ES2770373/ |

I assume the bigger fan would need coding though?

The bigger fan does need coding, and there is a another power control module installed since the FAN pulls an additional 20amps (80a v 60a) if I remember correctly.
They should be able to install it on the m-sport, as long as you have the oil cooler on the RH side of the car. |

Thanks for the help and info. Guess I will just go with the secondary radiator.
Hopefully fits RHD same as LHD. That along with fog lamp delete and is scoops should improve temps!

Anyone do a MDH flass with PPK? I remember seeing something about the PPK programming being required for new fan. Am I over thinking things?
