New 440i GC, is the MPPSK the most worth it?

BlakeBehrens · 04-22-2024, 06:04 PM

I am looking for just a bit more power, nothing crazy that would void warranty or lower the life span of the car by any means. I was looking at the MPPSK and it looks like exactly what I’m looking for, just super expensive. Are there any tricks to getting the Power/Sound at a lower price point while keeping it under warranty?

Short answer is no
I'd wait till your warranty ends then flash mhd or boot mode and grab a midpipe. Don't be scared about tuning these engines many of us are running almost twice factory output without issues.

Will it shorten your engines lifespan? Probably. But you're also not beating the crap out of it to get the same performance as you would a stock engine. My advice is to send it and save the money for unlikely repairs

I love the MPPSK and mainly purchased it because of the valve control, but in reality i kept the MPPSK tune for about 6 months before i swapped to MHD stage 1 & then MHD stage 2. MPPSK sounds great but you're probably better off just waiting until warranty is up, getting another exhaust and flashing MHD/BM3 stage 1 tune. there are other valved options for exhaust if thats one of the things you wanted

what year is your car? and what warranty are you referring to?

Car is a 2019 440i GC, have a Zurich warranty. Looked into some stuff a bit more and think I’m gonna go the route of tuning post warranty.
