How does this compare to RaceChip? Is there a smoother delivery? More linear? The RaceChip is advertising well over 100hp gains.

Thanks

Question...any suggestions on getting the Turbo Boost Pressure sensor unplugged?

As per the units instructions, I followed the steps required to get plug A disconnected and hand a bitch of a time. Lighting wasn't the greatest and I didn't want to break it so I left it alone and figured I'd get some advice here from the pros before moving forward.

Suggestions?

That particular sensor is the worst of the bunch by far on the F97/F98. If its just a visability thing then you could also access the connecter by removing the drivers side front wheel and then the M shaped plastic cover there (mud guard?). That opens up to nearly directly on top (or underneath I guess) of the same sensor instead of going from the direct bottom where small hands are rewarded. As far as the locking clip itself the back of the manual shows the various methods depending on plug -- page 32, center plug should be basically what you have for a more detailed visual of what you are working with and how to crack it if that is the issue. Sounds like its more accessibility than anything though if I had to guess.

I'll give that a shot over the next couple days then report back with results!
Thank you!

I have a cool dealer since he said he will install the Dinan resonator delete and told me it shouldn't be an issue and also knows that Dinan has their warranty. I also bought the piggyback and I am wondering if I need to remove it everytime I go in for regular service like Oil change and such. Or do you guys leave it? And if I have a normal warranty issue (not mayor) then for sure remove it prior?

Finally got the DINANTRONICS X installed on my X3M!
Worked with Victor from VDL Performance in San Antonio, TX.
He was awesome, same day turn around and they hand washed car which was a total surprise!!
Very happy with the service they provided!

My X3M seems to like setting #6 the most.
I out 100 miles on it yesterday and had zero issues.
The throttle response is sharper and it's perky!
I am happy so far!!

Hey. What fuel grade do you run? 91 or 93? Most of the places where I am at run 91. And I left the setting as it comes default which I think is 5. I want to try the 6.

In for results....let us know how it works out.

I wonder what the power gains for 91 octane fuel look like. Here in CA it's what we have available at 98% of the pumps in this area.
