Dinan Sport Tuner

bi0hazard · 02-13-2017, 06:38 PM

Got this little toy as well. I know it's been reviewed before. So far only tested it in Sport+ mode, while the device is in race. It's more (or it appears) responsive for sure. I have to play with the tuner/car settings a little. I have a hard time with traction. Basically during entire 2nd gear run the traction light is blinking on/off now, and that's with basically new tires and 65 deg weather.

Installed mine two days ago.
In race mode it really accelerates hard. Great mod for the money.

Not sure if this was discussed in the other thread, but does anyone know if this Dinan SportTuner will clear a CEL due to catless dp?

Thanks

No, it will not.

I'm on fire for this device. Only considering for the street car, is that a big jump from the acceleration point? BTW, Bluetooth is worth?

I wouldn't say a big jump but definitely noticeable. The Bluetooth is just very convenient.

I think Dinan is selling this device short. I don't know if there's any Hp difference but torque is definitely noticible. Throttle response at low rpm is better, imo. Today, I noticed that in race mode (3+ boost) the turbo woosh is significantly louder. Bluetooth cOonnection is certainly convenient. Anyway, I think it's a great product for $299. Should've done it sooner.

I gained 40+ lbs to the wheels to well over 400.

Only a stage 2 tune like the Jb4 will hide the CEL

Another option is the BMS can flap module

So what's the different between the sport tuner and the Dinan stage 1? I thought both were ECU tunes only?
