It doesn't take a chef to know when food tastes like sh*t.

You claim the 3 you mention have no credentials, yet each continue to outsell the Dinan solutions several times over. Do you know why?

1) They continue to produce consistent results.
2) They are not priced out of line due to "BMW tax" when compared to other car brand performance products.
3) They were all developed with the wider community involved at the testing, implementation and support phases.
4) Each has beaten Dinan to the market at every stage.
5) Each is more flexible than Dinan and empowers the user to make changes should they wish to get more out of their car without unnecessarily throwing more money at the problem.

There is a law of diminishing returns at play here and with any other tuning scene out there. Spending less than the most expensive products out there does not necessarily equate to inferior products. Saving money is not always a compromise.

All of the above however is probably lost on you as, judging by what's displayed to the right of your post, you just came in here to try and justify your purchase.
