Part of the S3 package is engine software and maybe bigger injectors. If that stuff is still there you would want to take it back to the software the engine should have for the remaining Dinan mods which would be S2 software.I don't think you should even make an offer unless you can drive it and have a PPI done.

According to the Dinan website, S3, S3A and S4 software were without supercharger. S3 was for high flow throttle body, S3A for high flow throttle body and cold air intake, S4 is high flow throttle body, cold air intake and high airflow MAF. As this has all 3 of those items, I'd assume it has S4 software. It also has the Brembo brake package, trans software (supposedly) and full exhaust. But, I put a call into Dinan for clarification on what that SN came with so we'll see what they say. The parts prices do make me choke a bit as they're more expensive than some of my Ferrari parts, ffs.
Regarding a PPI, I trust myself more than most mechanics. I do know one of the guys that has worked on it in the past so will put a call into him to see what he knows of the vehicle.
