these add ons would put my 2016 228i xdrive at
base
240 +(59)=299
dinan said stock is
261+(59)= 320
do i believe dinan or the factory
Stock (crank) rated is 240hp. Baseline stock wheel hp is more like 228hp. The 240 is under-rated or the parasitic loss is like 5% (not likely). A Dinan Stage 1 tune gets you about 39HP..(not 59 net) so you're around 267whp. My car with just a mild Stage 1 puts out 248-250whp and 317wtq. I wasn't looking at wringing every last possible HP out of the tune as I wanted some built in safety. I doubt you'll ever see 350WHP on the N26 for any length of time (read =Kaboom).

The N26 is the same as the N20; the only differences really are the more restrictive Cat(s) that supposedly pull the power down. I haven't seen an N20 dyno that says it's significantly more than an N26 honestly. The rest of the parts on my car (hoses, etc.) all say N20.
Thanks for the info and dropping some realistic numbers on me I just want some enjoyable rides on the open road and make it my own
