[FIGURED I'D JUST ASK YOU IN THIS THREAD RATHER THAN START A NEW ONE]

Just getting a '11 550i this next few weeks and wondering if ANY of you have (or know of anyone) done the Dinan Stage1 or anything to their 550's? Or possibly any threads reviewing it or describing their feelings on the results? I'm expecting to do it almost immediately because it seems like such a cheap way to pull 500hp..

Any thoughts? Anyone..? Anyone..? Thanks in advance.

I've read some posts a while back about some of the guys who did it having issues with the chip not working, etc. I wonder if Dinan worked out the bugs with the chip?

I'm somewhat skeptical, though, if the chip will make all that of a difference. If it can make the car as fast as the 2012 CLS 550 (0-60 in 4.3s), I will be shocked......highly doubtful however given the weight of the F10.
