DINAN Performance Software FAQ:
MPG with Performance Software on a turbo car?:
This is the beauty of a turbo engine.? When the engine is not in boost (below about 3K rpm) it is sipping gas like a small non-turbo engine would.? It is only in higher boost levels that more fuel is used.? It all depends on your right foot, if you drive gently the car will use the same or slightly more gas than stock and if you drive it at wide open it will use more.
Will Dinan parts be covered under my extended/CPO warranty through BMW?
The Dinan warranty matches the new car 4 year / 50,000 mi warranty and does not cover any extended or CPO warranties.? Read the full warranty here: http://www.dinancars.com/warranty.aspx
Will the software hurt my engine?
Yes and no? We work very hard engineering our products to work within the limits of the engine components.? On the other side, nothing is free and we are asking the engine to do more work and that will increase wear.? Dinan is the only one that backs its software with a BMW factory matching 4 year/ 50,000 mile warranty.? We are as confident about our products as BMW is about theirs.
Will stock parts hold up to the added power gained from Performance Software?
Yes, part of our R&D process is scrutinizing every component for the ability to handle the extra power added to the system.? We must do this because of our BMW factory matching 4 year/ 50,000 mile warranty.? We feel as confident about our products as BMW does about theirs.
Do I need to install the Performance Software stages in order?
No, any stage can be installed at any time.
If I upgrade to the next stage software do I have to pay full price?
No, just the price difference between the stage you currently have and the stage you are upgrading to.
After installing Dinan Performance Software who can service my BMW?
Anyone.?
