Seeing that there's a 15% rebate for DINAN, I am thinking about doing the $600 tune. What do you guys think? Anyone wanna share their experience with a tune from DINAN??

Powerchip is about $800. Dinan Stage 2 is $600 and comes with 15% rebate. hmmmmm
Just called dave at Dinan in NJ.
Stage 1 installed is $491 (for K&N)
Stage 2 installed is $598 (for Dinan Intake)
I guess I'll go for the Stage 1. That's a great price and after 15% off, u cant beat the deal. Some guy from Upsolute wanted $600.

Unfortunately, they do not for the 525. They only make it for the 530 and up.
Hey C, where can I get that chip from?

I have the upgrade with Dinan.
I also have no experiance with the other.
Is there some data we can look at ?
Power upgrades?
HP?
Torque?
I can say that I am happy with the Dinan.
Software is backed by BMW and if it has any issues the Dealer I goto will remap for free.
I would like to hear the pros and cons though.
A modded car is a happy driver
