Dinan Performance Numbers for 6MT

I've looked, and maybe I'm missing it. But has anyone seen any hard numbers on the real world performance increases - - 1/4 mile / 0-60 - - for the total Dinan package for the M2?

I'm looking at one right now, and wondering whether to upgrade with the package.

And yes....I know there are supporters and detractors of Dinan, but I've used Dinan products before and am comfortable with the dealer protection that comes with them. And no.....I don't think I'll wait 12-24 months for the competition model, which will likely be $$$$$$ more.

Anyone have a link to tests with real numbers with the manual?

What stage and what packages r u looking for? Suspension and drive train? R u looking for wheels and tires as well? Exhaust? Performance figures will vary depending on the stage and packages.

I have seen some DCT Dinan Stage 2 tuning reviews on Youtube but not 6MT. Figures should not be much different (may be just 0-60 between 6MT and DCT will differ not the Wheel Break Horses).

Thinking I'd go with the engine/tuning components, maybe the suspension. Not really interested in the brakes or cosmetic upgrades.

Tires and Wheels are great but I think they are overprised.
Engine (Intake and turbo) & ECU/ Swaybar & Suspension (Link and coil over)/ Intercooler will be suffient option. Suspension was reviewed generally "nice" compared to stock or MP coilover. If you have yours with MPE, probably not for exhaust but just resonance delete.

But remember that your original Dealer wont be doing any warranty any longer (ppl in time say Dinan tunings are Factory Waranty Covered at dealer but they are not) Dinan certified installer will cover once any problem comes up related to any of their parts installed for your own upgrade.

Yes, that's exactly what I was thinking. If I can find the MPE on a good Black Friday sale, I might go that route.
