If I was to ever get a supercharger, it would probably be from Dinan due to their warranty.

Still waiting for their software....tic toc tic toc

Keep on waiting man. I should've asked Dinan when I was at bimmerfest, but forgot. I was looking for Powerchip. Found them and passed on them $$$. Then I stumbled on Singh Motorsport and EuroBahn. I know Singh is in your neck of the woods. I'm mostly likely to go with Eurorev, Eurobahn, or Upsolute. Can't wait any longer for Dinan. Too impatient!

I was originally going to go with Upsolute as I found a local dealer near my house and they are also the cheapest because a lot of their dealers do the work right out of their own house/garage incurring no overhead. It's about $350 to chip our cars. I believe their website claims about 33hp increase but I emailed them directly and their contact estimated a conservative 20hp gain for the 545.

I also had some email exchanges with Jags at Singh Autosport and yeah, they're about half an hour from my house. They claim 21hp and 19 lb-ft increases for about $800.

I even looked at EuroRev (SpeedInnovations) cause the shop that has done most of my work, CarLab, is their partner here in the Bay Area and EuroRev conducts chip sessions at CarLab once in a while.

In the end, I decided to go with all Dinan products so here I am, waiting..............

My sales buddy at Dinan says their programming should come out this month. Need to call him on Mon. I'm hoping with their air mass meter and software upgrade, my car should be over 370hp!!!!!
