Wow that's a great mod! However for 17k, I think you can get a lot more for your money. Don't get me wrong, Dinan makes great stuff but I'm not so sure their price justifies the ends.

if ur dealer is a dinan dealer, then u can go to ur local bmw dealer and have them work on dinan parts and they are all warrantied.. thats the biggest advantage.. so if u have the money might as well take that advantage

In the meantime, I will attempt to drive it as much as possible to continue gathering subjective "data"...

Congrats! Heck, I'm happy I've finally found an X5 4.6is to purchase (just got her about a week ago). I only wish I were complaining about the supercharger whine

Congrats!!!

Well, apparently Dinan doesn't have the parts for this kit on the shelf, so it took about a month for them to build/put all the parts together. Then I left the country (taking underwater photos in Indonesia - see http://www.underwaterreflections.com/gallery/2275895 ), so they had about 3 weeks to work on it while I was gone - didn't need to rush to get it all done in a few days. Then, late in the installation, they discovered that I needed a new head gasket, which was back-ordered, so that held it up another week after I got home. (Lucky for me, I took it in a few days before the original warranty expired, so the head gasket was covered!)

All in all, understandable delays! But definitely worth the wait!
