PP 86DSP, any reason not to?
Is there any reason to spend $899 for the bimmer-tech version of this amp over buying the Match version?
https://www.audiotec-fischer.de/en/m...fiers/pp-86dsp They are going for $665 on the bay https://www.ebay.com/itm/MATCH-PP86D...-/362152255072 Just trying to figure out what makes the bimmer-tech version so special. On the bimmer-tech website I chatted and asked what the difference was, this was their response: Quote:

You need to take a couple of things into account. The Bimmertech one comes with a mounting bracket which is nice to have, and a wiring harness which is need to have. They will sell you just the harness but it is not cheap.
Wait til the BT one is on sale again for $850 and eBay plus extras won't be cheaper.

I was trying to get bimmer-tech to offer me some kind of code/discount but they said no. They said best bet would be to see if they have a 4th of July or Black Friday sale. Ugh!!!!! |

As-is you'd be saving, if memory serves, $30 or so at current pricing assuming you get a bracket too. I'd spend the extra for a warranty and good customer support, that's like a burger and a beer.

Just bought and installed (well plugged it in) super disappointing. Surely if they ask for your VIN # it is so they can install a tune that works. Tuning imho is the toughest part and that is why I was cool paying a premium.
Just buy the cable from technic and install yourself. BimmerTech version not worth it imho.
