That would be similar to MPPK with RaceChip Ultimate. Except, you got better quality and support from RaceChip.

I would run MPPK with Dinan stage 1 (for MPPK). Because it's made for MPPK equipped cars. I'm no expert, but that is where I would put my money.

for 35i

sounds like I will be running the JB until I get the MPPK put it. I had the JB on wife x3 and now she wants more power on x5 as it is a little laggish for her.

Thanks

I just made this very jump yesterday, BMS Stage 1 to MPPK. So far the only difference I have noticed is that the brutality of the power delivery with the BMS stage 1 is gone. Things seem smoother which can also be perceived as less power. Verdict is still out for me.

MPPK is slower than JB stage 1 in your opinion?

So far what I have noticed is that the power delivery is different between the two sources. The JB was more of a brute while the MPPK (so far) is more gradual. Based on this, one could conclude that the MPPK doesn't offer as much power because you don't feel that sudden surge, it's gradual.

I will play more this weekend although so far I definitely cannot say that MPPK offers more power than the JB1.

Dont think the MPPK will give you as much peak power as the piggybacks. Piggybacks feels great when you are flooring it while the MPPK feels good all the time just without as much kick. There is a lot more that the MPPK alters compared to the piggies.

Don't forget that those numbers are at the crank. Not at the wheels.
My dyno numbers are hp/tq at the wheel.

I need to go catless and dyno my X5 to get a base of the MPPK and BMS intake
