E53 Dinan Horsepower Bump
 

I have a 2001 E53 with; Stage 3 Engine Software, Stage 1 Transmission Software, Cold Air Intake, Throttle Body, and Exhaust (All Dinan). It has been so long and I just cant remember and cant find it anywhere. Can someone please tell me the HP and Torque specs with those upgrades??

I would go to BMW Performance Upgrades and Engine Tuning Software - Dinan, Leader in BMW Performance Parts and Upgrades or call them for specs - Are you a M62 or M54?

I have tried to get the info from Dinan but no luck yet. I have the M62. What is the difference?

2 cylinders

Go dyno it.

I don't know why, but this response is cracking me up!!!

:bustingup:bustingup:bustingup

Awesome.

I guess I asked for that. I thought it would be assumed it was a 4.4 since I have never seen a 6 cyl with those mods. Guess I need to know every BMW codename before I would expect a legit response from anybody. O wait... the Go Dyno it was totally legit. I should have thought of that.

This is my Dinan 4.8iS dynoed by the original owner.

I've seen plenty of M54's with those mods on E46Fanatics or ZHPMafia or on the E39 boards at Bimmerfest - which is why i asked.

Dinan no longer makes their cold air intake or exhaust that I can tell for the M62 so there are no specs on that. The Stage 3 software is for use with the throttle body and optimizes it, I'm not sure it gives more power.

So going off stage 1 software per Dinan website:
-9 hp and 11 ft lbs

High Flow Throttle Body:
-Rated at 8 hp and 8 ft lbs

Since Dinan doesnt have specs on their intake I used AFE's - they claim 10 hp and 20 ft lbs

The exhaust I dont have any specs I can find or any comparable exhausts for their power numbers - so based on the above you can estimate approx 30 hp and 40 ft lbs at the crank added from the mods. And that took me all of 5 mins in a Dinan website search and AFE website.
