Reread the Dinan warranty. If other parts break as a result a Dinan part failure, you are screwed. A stage 2 is much more than software, as well.
The real clincher to any further discussion is that all this is a moot point because there is no stage 2 upgrade for a 535ix.
Kinda makes your whole signature somewhat suspect.

"Dinan is pleased to announce the introduction of the anxiously awaited Stage 2 Performance Engine Software for BMW 535i and xi models."

This is really confusing because I went thru Dinan's "performance products" section. Picked the 5-series and then chose 535xi and no Stage 2 pkge came up.
It must be a website issue with them.
Of course, I apologize for the "suspect" statement to Andy.
I was taught early on to stay clear of a tease and darn it if didn't tempt me again.

#1-There is a stage 2 for xi, and don't worry about the warranty.. I hammer mine and no problems (I had the fuel pump replaced prior to DINAN install but that has been a common prob w/ the turbo 6's)

#2- My car is awd like yours and I'm telling you, 3500 rpm and drop. It hooks up like a mother....

I'm a little scared on dropping it at 3,500 ... but I'll take your word for it, that it hooks up like a MFer
