We don't want anyone accidentally screwing up the maintenance on one of these rare beasts.
The "Performance Engine Option" you are referring to is officially known of the PPK2 (Power performance kit 2). This comes standard on the 135is and includes the PPK1 software as well as the aux radiator, larger fan, and maybe a couple other things I am missing. Maintenance schedule is different and BMW has included a warning/reminder in the form of a sticker placed in the engine bay.
