My track car has most of the Dinan software/performance parts. I like the stuff


Met Steve a couple of times down here in Atlanta. He is a good guy and knows his stuff.

Just curious, what suspension upgrades are available at Dinan? (for street use purposes)

I looked online but didn't even see anything for the 5 series.

They have suspension for the 545i/550i but I do not see it as an option for the 528i; perhaps you should talk to a Dinan rep. I highly recommend it

My local BMW dealer is also an authorized Dinan dealer. I guess I should talk to them? I wish I lived close to the Dinan headquarters.

So Im thinking of tuning my 545i up a bit. I don't want to do any ECU removals/mails and Powerchip thus isn't an option. Whatever I do needs to be BMW Approved and not void any warranties or fry any parts that BMW can't replace as part of the original owner warranty extension...

That essentially leaves me with the Dinan Upgrades. I was looking at the Stage I SW and the CAI but don't know how much of a difference that will truly make. Does the car actually feel different or are the mods just blips on a dyno chart? My goal is to get more power, torque out of the engine - stuff that I can feel in day to day driving, not drag racing or hwy flying.

Any ideas, reccs? Advice, as always, is appreciated....

How about a RPI scoop for your car? You'll be gaining 5-7 REAR WHEEL HP. We have this in stock and ready to ship for $99

If you do go with the Dinan intake you can add the M5 scoops.

I talked to a Dinan rep on the phone. The stage 1 suspension package D190-6001K is offered on 545i, 550i, and 535i. However not offered on previous years' 525i and 530i. And they haven't had a 528i in the shop yet.

I'm guessing the suspension package can probably fit, but it needs their blessing obviously.

A bit different from others, for my driving needs I'm mainly interested in suspension upgrades (plus tires of course). I'm not concerned about looks and would rather not stand out.
