boost. It is a fully re-tuned engine management program that maximizes

are analyzed for strength then the program is tested on the dyno and in

car warranty coverage for up to 4 years or 50,000 miles, including the
possibility of consequential damages. The X5 & X6 top speed is set to 155 mph.

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.
I do not live near a Dinan Dealer can I still purchase Performance Software?
Yes,
for most cars the engine control computer (DME) can be removed and
shipped to Dinan HQ in California for reprogramming. Most DMEs are
received, reprogrammed and shipped back out within 24 hours. For
questions or to order please call 1.800.341.5480.
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:

Will the chip hurt my engine?
Yes
and no... We work very hard engineering our products to work within the
limits of the engine components. If we know we are asking too much from
them, like with the Stage 3 software we require improved cooling with
the Dinan oil cooler or intercooler to keep everything within the
limits. On the other side, nothing is free and we are asking the
engine to do more work and that will increase wear. Dinan backs its
software with a BMW factory matching 4 year/ 50,000 mile warranty. We
are as confident about our products as BMW does 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 additional required parts are already installed.
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.
