Dinan Stage 1 + MPE
Just had a Dinan Stage 1 installed and the MPE ! I like the new sound - aggressive but not overbearing - As for the stage 1 - It seems to really make a difference especially at over 4500 RPM - if you punch it at that RPM it is beast - actually pushes you back hard into the seat with the torque - went from 70 to over 120 in a heartbeat - The real test will come in April when the track opens - I will not be surprised to break into the high 11 range - Still waiting for Dinan to release a CAI - and I may go to the bigger intercooler when it becomes available.

They are pretty tough here in NH on emission inspections - and this is a lease so that is not a option to do resonator delete - At least on the MPE since it is a OEM part - I will be able to recoup some of the cost per my dealer - Also the sound is just right as is. If I want really loud I drive my 2000 450HP Camaro SS and open the cutout lol!!!
Total dealer cost for the MPE with install and install of the Dinan tune was 1500.00 so labor was a little less than 300 for both - I purchased the Dinan tune seperate from Mike at extreme power when he had his Xmas Sale - Also the black tips that came with the Car fit the MPE |

I've been running the Dinan Stage 1 on my m240i since Friday.
Wow it has made a difference! Acceleration can be downright scary sometimes and the back end will break loose! I'll post more as I drive more but so far I'm happy. |

Dinan stage 1 = V2 Elite?
Looking at the install instructions it seems pretty easy. Has anyone installed this themselves?
