Well, I was sitting back last night and pontificating about which Dinan package to get...

compared to the S Package, the S1 package gets you 5hp for another $3k and you get stage 3 software, throttle body, rear strut brace and stage 1 suspension.

For cars with dynamic handling package, is a suspension upgrade a waste of money? I am thinking the stiffer suspension will only mean that the dyanamic drive stabilizers just won't be as active.

I could get the S packge and for an additional $599 (499 for throttle body and $100 for stage 3 software upgrade from stage 2 software) get 390 hp and 375 lb-ft. (an e39 M5 came with 394 horsepower and 268 lt-ft torque)

I know, I know, I should have just picked up an M5...
