I'm thinking about having the Dinan dual mass flywheel installed. It's a relatively big job (7 hours of labor). I'd yank the CDV at the same time. Anyone do this mod? I'm looking for improved clutch control. I heard that in addition to the CDV, there is a hydraulic link on the stock flywheel that also "de-tunes" the manual clutch experience in favor of easy shifting for novices.

Exactly. Will try cold air intake and ECU re-map first as well as replace the CDV and see how it runs.

Mrs. Dinan has a 545 SMG and said that after having all of the mods on her car that was the one she noticed the biggest improvement from. (she drives cars as hard as you or I)

As soon as the software is out I will bring my car back up their to get the Diff., Flywheel, t-body and suspension.

i can STRONGLY suggest the 3.45, i've been waiting for a decent clutch before doing the flywheel. both makes it easier to swallow...
