Dinan turbo

As I sit here in the dealership getting my break in service done I am thinking about the dinan big turbo upgrade...

I bought the car with the m performance package which includes the performance exhaust which I love. I do not want to get the entire s2 package but am looking to get the turbo, intercooler, intake and the stage 4 tune.

If you don't combine it with the dinan exhaust is that a big deal?? Does performance suffer? Will they allow you the get the stage 4 tune without the exhaust?

The exhaust claims 6 bhp so no, performance won't suffer. You can get the stage 4 without exhaust. You'll need to get the intercooler also.

I have that set-up, myself. Power package without the exhaust. I did add a catted downpipe from Fabspeed, though. Highly recommend that piece, from both a power and aural perspective .

I might gild the lily with the Dinan exhaust some day, though. In my view, that's the best value out there for an exhaust, per dollar spent.

I'm definitely interested in hearing the responses to this because I was interested in finding out if I can get their big turbo and just their tuner without anything else because I'm FBO right now and if I can keep my pieces I already installed I would love too. Thanks everyone!

You can install just the turbo and tune if you have an upgraded intercooler

Yeah I have an upgraded intercooler, catless dp, Chargepipe, intake, and exhaust. So that's why I wanted to know if I could just get the upgraded turbo. I want the efficiency and reliability of a good turbo upgrade. I keep hearing horror stories of different turbo upgrades and I hear this is the most reliable. I don't need the extra hp other turbos claim to get I just definitely want the reliability if so far that has been the case with these turbo upgrades. Thanks for the help

You will have to get the dinatronics piggy back too. I think you know this, but I just wanted to say it here. Without it, or some other custom tune, things would be out of wack.
