Dinan s3 550gt vs bms 550xi

How does a tune not get installed correctly?

You have a program, you plug in the unit, it tells you it's ready and you push the button. It tells you when it's downloaded like a computer program, and you unplug the unit.

Even I could do that.

Any reports / confirmation from dinan_gt whether this was indeed not installed properly?

I'd also like to know from DinanGT as I was looking into the Dinan software tune as well.

Well considering he ran stock times the tune was not installed correctly, next week supposedly it will be looked at by Dinan tech.

Hey guys,

So finally my dealer bought a boost kit and got the gauge shipped, the car is going Today for proper testing. Hopefully the issue gets resolved soon.

Hey guys, just got the car back today.

They reinstalled the software and checked the boost with the gauge. It maxed at 21psi, and ran an average of 14-15. I definitely felt and saw (on the speedo) that the car was running faster, plus the backfire was much louder and you could hear the turbos spooling. I don't think it will beat Jb4, but at least the tune is working now

next car I will probably go JB4 though...
