For some reason I couldn't get the sound to work so I went to YouTube. I feel SOOOOOO much better about my investment. Now if I could only get Dinan to forward the back ordered turbo before my first scheduled track event, I'd be ecstatic!

I am always hesitant about doing any aftermarket stuff but Dinan has a great reputation and is the only tuner i would trust. I ordered their Dinantronics sport tuner to dip my toes in the tuner world without going in too deep. I am mostly tempted to go with their coilover kit because my only complaint about my car is the ride is overly stiff for day to day driving on bumpy roads. It doesn't bother me much as I am used to it but my wife complains from time to time.

Haven't viewed yet but the quote on being bad on the street is not correct in my opinion. I'll take a look later.

Like I said in the other thread on this clip, it looks like the Matt Farah Bobblehead Doll is driving that car. Not the best advertisement for the coilover kit. That car does not look properly damped in that clip.

I also think that they look pretty generic. The OEM wheels are better looking

Not to mention id rather get the new OEM forged wheels from BMW at that price range, they look amazing and are factory!

Nope. The "tune" is the Dinantronics unit, and that is part of the P2 kit. I spent just under $5 grand for the Dinantronics, the IC, the intake, and the big turbo. I didn't get the exhaust or the resonator delete--figured a Fabspeed DP was a better bang for buck on power.
The prices are all on Dinan's website. Spent another $1770 for installation of it all. |

Again, for power I've spent under 7 grand for the Dinan P2 (w/o exhaust), another grand for a Fabspeed DP, and under $300 for a Pure inlet. That's about 8 grand-ish total, and in my view still within "reason," whatever that means, given the price of the car. I could have gotten more power, for less money, at least initially. But I have another car I've already gone absolutely apeshit on in terms of mods, and so for me, on this car, this will be enough, and I'm happy to have done it. My previous DD was a Dinan e36 M3, so my Dinan M2 is its spiritual successor. |
