Dinan 15% off going on now!

There's a 15% dinan discount going on now.
I'm getting Dinan shockware but did anyone get the negative chamber arms and low compliance rear control arm?

Id need like 50% of to justify. Cost on their products is intense. I wonder if they realize how much business they dont get because of their prices.
I'd even do a opt out of there "warranty" if there was a greater discount.

I agree. At $3k for entry level tuning to gain 100 HP ($2.5k after discount), I cannot see the value. Especially when we're talking 1-2 car lengths or .2 second improvement to 60 MPH. Sure does it pull harder when you're going 100+, but how often is that happening?

As a point of reference, I put $3k into my 2011 Shelby GT500 and gain 200HP and that is a hardware and software change. Not just software.
