BMW Performance to offer engine upgrades for the 135 and 335

The lovers of all things BMW, BimmerFile, have learned that BMW Performance will be offering an output upgrade for the N54 twin-turbo found under the hood of the BMW 135 and the 335. The N54 is the popular 3.0L twin-turbocharged inline 6-cylinder engine that BMW says produces 300-hp (on the stateside).

The new BWW Performance Power Kit will offer a software and performance upgrade that will give the N54 a boost of 20-hp. In European terms that means the engine will now produce 326-hp and 450 Newton meters of torque. In the U.S. that translates to around 321-hp and 336 lb-ft.

The kit has yet to be made official for the U.S. but we have been hearing for sometime now that we can expect a BMW Performance Power Kit sometime in April.

BMW has released a new teaser video along with a short message reading:

Can’t wait to see more? Join us again in November when we will show you what genuine driving pleasure is all about. Because with BMW Performance true passion is a matter of course. See you then.

From the teaser we’re guessing that we’ll get to see new performance parts for the 2009 BMW 3-Series since performance products and accessories are already available for the current 3-Series and the 1-Series. Whatever it is, it seems really exciting.
