GreekM,

The Dinan 335i is slower (especially in the top end) than a PROcede v2/v3 335i or JBX 335i. I believe a Dinan 335i runs ~ 12.5psi boost (and tapers off considerably near redline) vs. 14-15psi boost on these other tuned 335i's (which hold boost to redline; at least a PROcede v2/v3 335i does). It all makes sense as far as that goes, and well, while the E92/E90 M3 has enough HP, it just doesn't have enough TQ to keep up with a well tuned 335i.

Thx for the Info, I thought Dinan provided same levels of Boost as Procede V2/JBX, Such a Sad way to let $2K go away, Oh Well I guess the warranty kinda makes up for it.
