Also curious about the claim above that Dinan's engineering is just "ok". Don't know many with more successful track record (pun intended) but everyone is entitled to their own opinion.
Steve Dinan builds great race engines. His stuff for the "consumer" market is not as distinguished.

He has built a very successful business, based on sound engineering and a brilliant marketing plan that allowed people to believe his stuff was blessed by BMWNA and backed by the factory warranty.

His stuff is good, not great, and fits the needs of many who want to modify their cars without spending a lot of effort researching their options. It is also ridiculously expensive.
