No, Dinan won't be much of a compromise in terms of torque down low (it actually would all depend on which tunes you are comparing...). That is the area where Dinan mainly bumped power in their tuning... low end torque from low rpm boost. Dinan left the upper rev range modest as there isn't much room up top to increase power without over-spinning the turbo and creating heat. They don't really bump up power up top until you get into their stage 3 software... Otherwise, it's comparable to MHD stage 1.

MHD is much more aggressive up top from stage 2 and up, but the gains are marginal.
