Question for those with Dinan Sway Bars
Is your car a Comp pack?
How do you like the kit? Where do you live/drive? How much more stiff is the suspension now? Did the bars make going over bumps more 'dramatic'?

Comp Pack: Yes
Do I Like the Kit: Yes Where do I live: Houston/Suburbs - hwy and back roads Stiff?: I did both the suspension and the sways at the same time so it's hard for me to tell what is doing what... BUT i could assume that the sways are what made my car feel more planted - less body roll and flex. (suspension and some part too). @Stealth.pilot who only has sways. Maybe he would be better to comment. Bumps: No issue here. I have noticed that since installing the Dinan that I do get an odd vibration sound through my steering colum. I had a vibration before the Dinan that would make the wheel vibrate like crazy but that is now gone. The new vibration is more of a sound only (sounds like the plastic around the steering colum/just below the steering steeringwheel) wants to vibrate off). I know another member has also experianced this sound but his is much worse than mine. I cant really confirm its the Dinan and it happens so rarely that i have not investigated it further. Anyone else have this sound w/ or with out the Dinan setup?

Thanks Spinny!
I was hoping you were going to respond. How are you enjoying the Dinan tune?

I have done some research and another forum member confirmed that there is a map that BMW has that is actually cutting the fuel making this happen. So we have to get a real tune to correct this from happening. So just don't hang out at 165 ( speedo) very long =). ( note BMS users have noted the same issue)

Yeah, the Dinan's are lighter. The weights are listed on Dinan's site.
