Performance upgrade BMW 220i "mc320"
mcchip-dkr uncovers the BMW 220i “MC320” project car
Located in Mechernich, near the city Cologne in Germany, the mcchip-dkr team around Managing Director Danny KUBASIK is operating an ultramodern research- and development center for software development of POWER- and ECONOMY-optimisation. Talking about racing cars and trucks, customized solutions for conversions, governor delimiter or limitation, faster shifting as well as certain software adjustment are just some of their profound specialties.
Lately, a significant performance upgrade has been implanted into a BMW 220i with a 2.0 liter-turbo-engine, original 184 HP (=135 kW), 270 ft-lbs torque and a max speed of 235 mph. The outstanding result is a project car named “MC320”. The proprietary internal level three software as well as a “MC320” upgrade of the turbocharger joined the project and to unlock even more potential a highly efficient downpipe plus a 200-cell-sport-catalytic and a larger intercooler has been installed. MBDesign supplied the outstanding rims type LV-1 in 8,5x19 Offset42, obviously with matching tires. In order to keep the mighty power on track a KW-coilover suspension version three supports the driving dynamics. And after all that the BMW 220i got wrapped in a fancy design vinyl to emphasize its remarkable character. Interested customers have the choice between two “assembly kits”: 255 HP (=188 kW) power, 400 ft-lbs torque and 155 mph top speed for 1.099,00 Euro or alternative the “MC320”-kit with 320 HP (=235 kW) power, 435 ft-lbs torque and a max speed of 161 mph for 6.399,00 Euro. This includes the level three software plus the “MC320”-upgrade for the turbocharger plus the downpipe and last but not least the 200-CSPI-sport-catalytic.
