Includes:

New engine unit
bigger IC
powerful fan (600W)

I think most people would agree that the power gains are not worth the price especially when there are so many good cheaper aftermarket tunes.

It is nice that the BMW power kit keeps your warranty, but if you find the right aftermarket tune which can be removed before service, you shouldnt have any problems with warranty.

thanks,
yes I know that but my car is already almost 4 years and this motor N47 is facing some problems due to motor distribution chain (some are braking!!) if I have a problem and my car is remaped / tuned BMW will be out for any warranty support.

Also the fact of being 23% off and torque converter included for automatic gear box is making my mind…

So you guys in US don’t adopt this performance power kit…for 135i…nobody?
