i know it seems high, though that is the price you pay to keep the warranty and mod the car. Vishnu, JuiceBox, and Helix all have piggybacks that can generate more power than that for much cheaper. From what I have read, Dinan is ridiculously overpriced.

the reason I ask is that I have never moded german cars before and didnt know how the dealer would react to it . There are guys I know , would drive their brand new corvette to their performance guy and replace the CAM, headers, heads etc and still take the car for warranty and the dealer would cover most items. I dont know how BMW would react to just increase the boost or even add an exhaust.

BMW wants you to buy the BMW performance products. They had an actual deal with Dinan where you could buy Dinan parts through certain BMW dealers and have them installed by them, which in turn did not void your warranty. they even CPO'ed dinan cars.

Or you could buy a car from them with Dinan packages already on it.

Found a letter of some BMW boards which stated BMW and Dinan were terminating their relationship as of September.

JB2 with R switch and Race gas is good for atleast 360RWHP+

add the down pipe and better intake.. and no problems running with AMG's except the v12 Bi turbos.

But.. the mod party has really slowed down since the new DME which detects piggy back based on changes on parameters

Why did the 350z have front mounted intercooler if he's na? i'm assuming he's NA if he's running 13's.
350Z's are slow depending on how you tune them but 350z turbo or even twin turbo run mid 13's or low 13's, not sure why but yeah!

the original poster even admitted he didn't know much about turbos and it wasn't a FMIC.

A stock 350z does mid to high 13's stock depending on what year 350z. A turbo 350z is doing 400-500whp on stock internals. Just check dragtimes.com, there runnin 11-12second quarters.

Stock Z with the newer motor is gona run mid to high 13's like Termin said. Turbo with drag tires has to be low 12's if not high 11's.

Not an C/E63 unless on race gas and on the best day in it's existence.
