Been running good. Intake sounds good. K issues with the n63 throttle body and generic 4” MAF. A tiny bit more responsiveness under tip-in, and the midrange feels good. Not something I would want to pay $3k++ for, or whatever Dinan wanted new for these simple mods, but it does accelerate a bit stronger.

If you have all the engine mods and the exhaust and stage 4 software the result is 369HP at 5700 5700RPM and 382TQ at 4500RPM. The transmission software is great, good purchase. The exhaust alone was worth 8HP and 6TQ at 6500RPM. Some of the pieces are still offered by Dinan at dinancars.com.
I'll eternally search for that rare Dinan 4" intake tube from MAF to TB. Although my stock fits (barely) I can tell the engine is hungry for more air at low RPM now that I have stage 4 tune. Until then thanks for sharing your knowledge. If you happen to have any more suggestion or find that hen's tooth please advise.
