Note that BMW released a Performance pack for the 135i models which added 20 hp to the 3L twin-turbo (326 hp in total) thanks to a reprogrammed engine management and which offered an additional radiator and an improved cooling circuit. They could be distinguished by firmer suspensions, optimized braking system, specific 18-inch wheels and many exterior and interior sporting elements.
