The Dinan tunes I've had and currently run are great. But in my applications I couldn't run just a stand alone tune. I think in most situations Dinan mods are best when done as some kind of package. Especially if you expect any noticeable gains.........Phil

Maybe with your "M" you needed more than just a tune,,,however,,,they show, and I got a guarantee from Dinan that if I didn't like the tune,,they would flash it back to stock,,,,BTW they say I will get 96HP and 103lb-ft.
sounds like a good deal,,,,,it really doesn't seem that far fetched to expect those type of gains with a tt....that would make it..

You are correct.....a stand alone tune on a turbo is a different beast. We NA gearheads have to do a little more for fun ..............Phil
