Correct. That seems to be what most experience. There are scenarios with JB where some have experienced "flat spots" when accelerating hard and also harsh shifting with the transmission.
The only way the vehicle is faster is due to being able to increase the boost with the user feature. Faster isn't always safer for the engine.
But, we all know understand the risks of doing this. Needs to be done in a correct manner.

Your absolutely right. At the end of the day it's all about having the fastest car.. For about 90% of us that is! JB is like steroids and Dinan is natural ,eat and chicken.

Ultimately the community wants to see dinan Dyno/ track numbers. Without those it will always be that step child who is in back of the classroom.

I'll just throw this into the fold as well since we just released this video today---- way delayed but late is better then never. A little bit of insight on the DINANTRONICS device in case anyone was curious.

This video needs to be on a lot of posts !
Great information on really breaking it down.
I don't see ANY other tuner explaining it in depth like this.

Track times? Dyno numbers? For flash or the piggyback. Yet to see anything. Talk is great and if I didn't know any better I'd jump on the dinan ship. Nut lets see numbers?! If you claim your the best then 1/4 times and dyno numbers should not be an issue to provide right?

These threads remind me of poor people in their GT-Rs saying how much faster their ricers are than a Veyron. It's funny and sad at the same time lol.
And it's not about always having "the" fastest car. If your car with a piggyback doesn't drive like a stock BMW would then why have a BMW in the first place when you can buy something cheaper and "faster" in a straight line that rides and drives worse? Not everyone lives their life trying to have the biggest e-peen on a car forum while barely typing sentences in broken english.

Not defending anyone but, since when does typing and perfect Grammer and punctuation matter on the forum?

Half the time they are writing on their phones and using shorten ways of spelling things.

And I'm one of those people. Thank God my forum spelling and grammar doesn't have any effect on my career.

I think the point these guys are trying to make is if you walk and talk like a big swinging dick then pull your pants down and show us what you got. Otherwise its confirmed that you pissed away 15k on a car that is no faster than investing in a $500 plastic box that smokes a Dinan. Throw up some #'s to prove them wrong....
