I want the car to be in sport like mode without pressing the sport configuration. Meaning in feel the car is too sluggish in comfort. Plus I drive a lot of traffic ( Houston traffic is horrible) and I find that the car learns to be lazy. When I floor it in comfort and even in sport it takes a while to wake up. The second time I do it, it is awake.

Obviously I want it faster and quicker to respond to my demands.

How concerned should I be about warranty void? If I go Dinan, I keep warranty but get less go. This is the hardest thing I am trying to price.

Please let me know your thoughts. Thanks.
I'll see if I can get @m6beast to answer that question regarding comfort mode. I believe the difference between comfort and sport is the throttle response and shift points hence why you feel the lag in power. I am already tuned and I still have that lag issue in comfort which is why my M1 is set to my daily driving mode and my M2 is race mode. I wish BMW never included that but I understand the need to be more fuel efficient which comfort does help with.

I'll talk to George and see what he says.


Regarding warranty, if the issue you are trying to warranty is caused by the tune, it will be voided. Example, if you blow your turbo's, they can say your tune caused it. Then your fighting trying to disprove that. If your shocks go out, it will be covered under warranty.

At the end, BMW needs to prove that the tune caused the issue which is the headache. I told my dealer the other day that my idle is rough sometimes and immediately he pointed to my tune although the issue was pre existing to the tune and mods. I have friends I can reach out to at BMW so I wasn't bothered by it but those are possible issues you can run into.

Dinan is no different. If the issue was caused by Dinan, it is covered by Dinan and with the dealers being Dinan dealers it makes it much easier. They have a good program but feel free to search and you'll see the issue in talking about. There are some denial of warranties by both parties and leaving the owner in limbo.

Agree with these sentiments.. On the remap-I've been running my remap for closer to a year now.. If you run a piggy system you won't be covered either.. And Piggy's might not be detectible but the damage they cause is obvious..so any BMW tech worth his salt will work it out anyway..

All -

I have received all the details for both the intake & tune. I will PM each one of you with those details.

George @ MSR is looking at the dates and thinks we can make this happen in November. Once all the orders are in an we have commitments from everyone, he will firm up the dates and make it happen.

Please send me your email addresses so I can send them to George so he can send out invoices.
