There is a lot of information by "C" including a diy for installation (on Z4). Another poster is "kirkpart2". Included in the posts is info on AA and ESS tuning.
I'm pretty much at the point where I'm going to start hunting for a used manifold. First though I gotta check and make sure that the wiring is there for the manifold motors.

What else have you learned about DISA w/out tune. I know it operates based on RPM value.

For those with AA,the question is still if an AA tune before DISA knows how to use the DISA to get max potential.
