Dinan stage1 elite - loss of boost
I've seen several threads mentioning issues with the Dinantronics elite tune but not with the exact problem im having. Car is a 17 240i RWD coupe 6MT, had the Dinan elite + midpipe installed together around 4-5 months ago.
About a week ago I noticed I wasn't getting proper boost when driving under normal conditions in all driving modes. In fact it feels like im getting no boost at all unless I go WOT in which case it kicks in hard as expected. However under normal or even semi-aggressive acceleration, nada. I'll go from 1st through 4th gear and it feels like I'm driving a naturally aspirated car. I put the Dinan in bypass mode, everything returns to normal. Activate S1 and problem returns. Everyrhing seems to point to a problem with the tune but curious if anyone else has had this happen. |

Didn't BMW switch to metal charge pipes at some point?

Not sure. I see now that the OP has an m240i.
The m235i all have plastic charge pipes.
