FWIW my 2014 F10 M5 CP with Akrapovic with Dinantronics Stage 2 & CAI Put down 622RWHP, in 90° F and after idling for 20 minutes & was totally heat-soaked, at Timmayfest 2015. Two identical pulls. No TRQ numbers unfortunately.

just had stage 1 installed this week.
agree with OP comments, very noticeable difference and I would classify this as ludicrous speed. in the manual transmissions, there was a subtle but noticeable lag in the sub 2k rpm range. now it seems like there is no noticeable power drop throughout the rpm range and pulls like crazy. Every gear is nuts! very satisfied overall- only gripe is that they mounted the ecu at the front and if there is a front collision the ecu is toast. highly recommended for anyone who wants to keep warranty intact.

Mounted it at the front ? Due to the routing of the wire harness, the Dinan computer should be routed to the passenger side fender area. There is a specific mounting bracket with the kit that will mount the computer. |

In the early days the DINANTRONICS module was located under the cowl on the passenger side. This was changed however and the module should now be in the front of the engine compartment like you have it done. Reasoning being that the area it used to be in was very susceptible to flooding. There is one exit pathway in that corner that is notoriously blocked by debris which would in turn allow the pocket to be filled with water, submerging the box for extended periods of time when in inclement weather. While the box is weatherproof it still doesn't stand up well to being submerged in water for extended periods. It was then relocated to the front of the engine bay where such an occurrence can not happen. Being that we test/develop in CA where we haven't seen a drop of rain in about 17 years that knowledge was not something we were used to in early development. =) |

It does to me as well but its in your face marketing under the hood which I guess I kind of like. Being in CA where we have no rain the cowl / flood compartment is probably just fine to mount it in since there is practically no chance of flooding anyway without rain (although I will note that there was an instance of a gentleman that had that compartment flood because he took the thing through a car wash every couple of days and the draining area was backed up with debris so it still flooded even without the presence of weather). Just a poor drainage design back there is all.

1 thing I do is wrap the module in a plastic bag and secure the bag for no water leak. Just a second safety |

Flip the D logo around then if that's your goal. Upside D on the module, correct D on the sticker to the right?

Thanks Spinny. According to the Dinan rep here this is the new (and correct) place to mount it. Do you have any pictures of where yours was when you had it?
