2013 BMW 135is with Burger Tuning JB4 Stage 2 from GMP Performance

If there's one thing BMW owners can appreciate, its adding more power to their already amazing vehicles. That was the one and only goal with the gorgeous 135is, that came to us for a boost in the form of a Burger Tuning Stage 2 JB4 performance tune. With one simple install, this BMW saw all new and quite powerful driving experience. We also added a set of LED angel eyes to make it shine.



Parts Installed:
BMW 2011+ 135i, E90 335i, and E90 335xi N55 Stage 2 JB4 Performance Tuner by Burger Tuning

As if the 1-Series wasn't cool enough, this BMW now has a new boost of up to 60hp to the wheels with one simple plug and play upgrade. Now the owner has unlocked even more fun to experience with his 135is!

is this 60hp on TOP of the 135is PPK2 kit that comes from the factory? So 320hp + 60hp?

so will it be on top of the PPK2 kit already installed by BMW? I guess my question is; is this additive or does it negate the PPK2 program?

it is not additive. installing a piggy back or tune will override whatever software you currently ave, whether that be factory or ppk.

That is correct. The Burger unit will still total 60hp if you already have the PPK installed.

I do kind of wish you could add tunes together though

So will it remove the burbles/pops made by the PPK as well?

Wait wait, how is a piggyback overriding a FLASHED software program? Doesn't that kinda defeat the purpose of people doing a piggyback and flash program?

The Burger unit will allow you to get additional power on top of the BMW PPK. This is an option for people who purchase cars that already have the PPK installed and want more power. Otherwise, there is no reason to do both.

Exactly my point. Then when people say it "overrides" PPK1, 2 or any other previous flash, that is an incorrect statement.

The better terminology would be it "enhances" those tunes that are already there, otherwise known as stacking tunes. It doesn't cancel those previous tunes.

Hence why people stack tunes with Cobb and JB4.

This is correct. It does not over ride or replace the flash, it simply adds to it.

It's so worth it. The power to cost ratio on these is ridiculous!

We can ship anywhere and can install locally in Charlotte, NC!

Are you referring to the burbles/pops from the exhaust system?

The Burger unit does not remove or change anything about the BMW PPK.

Can someone with a 2013 135is who has installed the JB4 tune, please comment on their experience?

Did it noticeably enhance performance?
Did it have any negative impact? Reliability, fuel economy, sound, etc.
Have you had the car serviced with it installed?
If given the chance, would you buy it again?

I never did order one. Ended up doing Stage III Dinan instead. I like the performance, however it is definitely not worth the money. If you have an installer set up everything and do a clean wiring job, under normal services, a technician won't notice anything. In terms of reliability, you also shouldn't have much issues as the device is fairly straight forward. From an audible standpoint, the pops and cracks remain.
