How about the power boost for about $300 and keep the stupid badge/grilles/etc.?

Are you guys kidding?

This is fantastic - an OEM solution for 20HP and 30 TQ for $500...

Now no need to waste $200-500+ for the aftermarket tunes that have potential to void the warranty.

The other OEM solutions previously were >$2,500 with install.

It's nice to see BMW stepping up to the plate

I wonder if this retrofit is available for E92s as well. That would be swell.

Im not a fan of this kinda thing. Still, if you can buy 20 horses for $550, actually it is a pretty good deal! I would not buy it though...

If I could get a legal 20 hp for my 135i for $550 plus (reasonable) labor, I would order mine today.

Doesn't the Turbo Tuner or JB+ give more than 20HP and is easy to swap out?

It's still a good price for an OEM upgrade. Hell, OEM grills are $100+ at my dealer.

Let me get this straight... You are swapping out parts designed by some of the top engineers in the world because some guys sponsored by a company told you it's "better??" But when you ask the same guy about tracking, "oh no, I have a kid now" or "I just detailed my car." or "i just got new tires."

yeah but remember, you will get a new DME + a bigger FAN + an external radiator for water cooling, That's all what does matter


20 HP for $550 excluding labor is expensive, you can get DCI ( dual cone intake ) for $100, and install it your self and gain 20 HP

Somebody explain to me how to install a DCI on an N55.

...then show me a 20 hp/30 tq gain from anything on an N55 for under $2k...that is warranteed by BMW...

Now it should be obvious why a lot of N55 335i owners are happy about this.

Some people here are missing the big picture here! The important thing is that BMW is looking into offering performance options for the E9X platform! Hopefully, they will offer performance intake and performance brakes soon!
