Maybe because it was never an option before. Hopefully these type of offerings do not derail a proper M version in 2017.

^ $1499 is the cost for all the parts necessary for the N20 engine Dinan tune in the 28i. The 35i model is more expensive @ $1999. Of course you have labor and tax which is extra on top of the following prices.

You can always negotiate with your dealer. My dealer is offering me $1900 installed.

So ran into a little issue with dinantronic tune. The problem lies with BMW and that because my x3 was produced early 07/2012 and somehow happened to receive a mechanical wastegate when BMW switched to electronic wastegates around the same time and only introduced the n20 to the f25 for the 2013 model year which was around the same time, I was not able to flash the dinantronic box due to the software being designed for the electronic version. On the good side, Dinan expects to have the software by sometime end of next week so its only a couple days wait. At least everything is installed at the moment and all that needs to be done is the reflash which shouldn't take more than half an hour. Will update when everything is done

N26 (SULEV) engines are the only engines not emissions legal as the state is requiring specialized testing on them. They should be emissions legal in the near term as well though. Regardless, the N26 motor was only on some 228, 328, and 428 models so it doesn't affect the 'X' community. |

Snap! Thanks for the info. I ordered last week so didn't hear an update from the dealer. Do you recommend break-in before installation?

Does this remove the top speed limiter? Are there currently any German dealers who can do the install on US spec vehicles or can Birds in the UK do it?

For international orders of DINANTRONICS, chances are a pre-programmed box would need to be sent directly to you / shop. At which point whomever is installing it would just have to have the ability to clear codes during installation. Outside of that its pretty straightforward and outlined in detail in the instructions. For more info on that process you would want to call our sales department and speak to them about your specific situation. |

Diesel remains unsupported.
We have been told that after the gasoline powered cars software tuning is complete that they will start on the diesel vehicles. Gas powered cars should be complete in the next month or two. However, I personally won't believe it until I see a diesel model in our shop being worked on. So far, that has not happened. If/When it does happen I would imagine it will take a decent amount of time to develop it. So I would not count on anything for diesel in any short window of time. |

I will be suffering through waiting for allocation, delivery, and break-in, but am definitely excited to see some reaction!
