The fact that it's backed by Dinan and not some fly by night company is all I need to know to give it a whirl and keep my factory warranty.. I hope one is available for the G87..

A piggyback is one thing but its a private label of the least sophisticated piggyback out there with the fewest engine connections and least overall control. It's just frustrating because if they are going to do a piggyback, which has historically been "below them", why not at least do a decent one.
As far as I know Dinan does not provide any engine warranty on it.... |
I'm not sure what you expect for under $600.. The "F" generation Dinantronics units was over $2,000+
with warranty and yet everyone was still complaining about that setup - you damn if you do, you damn if you don't, I guess..
This pricing structure is inline with the product they are offering. The Dinan rep even explained their decision for using a known and tried and tested piggyback hardware, with their own proprietary software, hence the reason they can keep the price relatively reasonable, yet still offer a competitive product in the market. It's the not a "least" product, it's simply their version of same exact tuning tool that's already available.
I really don't see what all the fuss is about here, other than the typical Dinan bashing, which is par for the course with
the I live my life a quarter mile at a time flash tuning crowd.
