Noticed that there is now available BMW Performance Power Kit for 520d 184hp->200hp 1.245?.
Acceleration 0-100km/h 0,5 faster than standard one.

I think installation price is not included in that 1245?.
What do you think, is it any good to spend such amount of money for 0,5s ?
Acceleration 0-100km/h 0,5 faster than standard one.

Anyone here with a 520d and a KCR-box? For 4 700SEK, about ?520 you get 210hp and 440Nm (the auto gearbox, 8HP45, is specified up to 500Nm).

Atleast for me the BMW warranty is the most important issue. In these modern cars, you never know when something expensive breaks and if you have aftermarket chip, you can say bye bye to BMW warranty.
Still I'm not sure if it's worth of that huge amount of money. Don't know what would be the total price including installation. Any estimate ?

My Ride: My ex-ride: EU '08 LCI 520dA. Space Grey, Sport Seats in Black Leather/Fabric Anthracite, Sport Steering Wheel, A/C with Extended Features, Hi-Fi Speakers, Cup Holders, Cruise with Braking function, Folding Rear Seats, Xenons, Park Distance Control.
The BMW Performance kit will give warranty but still.
About +16 hp (to 200 hp) and +40 Nm (to 420 Nm) more,
0-100 km/h -0,5 seconds (7,8) and +7 km's to the top speed.
"Die Pakete bestehen aus Software- und Hardware-Komponenten."
What are the hardware components?
What are the new CO2 measures (consumtion)?
It will add to the taxes in Finland (if registered).
And I don't belive the price is 1.245 ? in Finland.

+1. For me the standard car is more than fast enough.

....and as you've guessed. The price is higher in Finland. Here's the info in finnish :
BMW Performance Power Kit -sarjan avulla käsivaihteisen BMW 520d -auton moottorin erinomaisen suorituskyvyn voi jopa ylittää.
Nämä paketit koostuvat ohjelma- ja laitteistokomponenteista, joiden toimintaperiaatteet on sovitettu täydellisesti toisiinsa sopiviksi.
Tehon nosto, joka saavutetaan moottoritietoja muuttamalla, tuo väistämättä mukanaan myös lämpötilaan liittyviä haasteita.
Muutettujen moottoritietojen ohella sarja sisältää normaalia suuremman välijäähdyttimen.
Tuloksena on tehon nousu 135 kW:sta 147 kW:iin ja maksimivääntömomentin kasvu
(380 Nm:stä 420 Nm:iin): 0 100 0,5 Nm:iin): kiihdytys nollasta sataan km/h sujuu nyt 0,5 s nopeammin.
Nopeudesta 80 nopeuteen 120 km/h kiihtyvyys paranee jopa 0,8 s (4. vaihteella) tai 1,0 s (5. vaihteella).
Maksiminopeudessa ero on 7 km/h.
Hinta 1 555,00 ?

Higher tax? Isn't the tax calculated based on the models original specs?

Using an engine software optimization combined with a larger inter-cooler and a more-efficient fan for the main radiator.

Just bought a f11 520d and the PKK is highly interesting in my country because the N47 engine here only has 163hk for tax reasons (tax reduced by approx. 3300 Euro) so the PKK pack for half that is great value. Trouble is the N47 PKK has so far only been released for manual cars. At least thats what I picked up at a german site. Hopefully BMW will release a PKK kit for the sport automatic soon.

You keep surprising me Scandic24
But does it lift the yearly Finnish car tax? Fore sure it will rise the CO2 levels and therefore the tax,
if reported to Trafi (Finnish Transport Safety Agency).
PS. But Norway will loose agaist Finland next Thursday, unlike to Sweden...
