Description: Stage 1 have you wanting more? Stage 2 Dinan performance engine tuning for ‘F’ chassis N55 platforms provides a new found level of exhilaration and enjoyment for you to enjoy. Taking advantage of supporting hardware (Dinan big turbo and an upgraded intercooler), the stage 2 engine calibration takes a significant step up in performance. Yielding nearly 40 WHP / 60 lb-ft of torque more on pump gas over stage 1 (over 70 WHP / 80 lb-ft of torque on race gas). That's +120 WHP / +160lb-ft of torque over stock on pump gas (nearly +170 WHP / +210 lb-ft of torque on race gas)! That type of bump in power equates to a transformation akin to purchasing a completely different vehicle.

While increases in power to this scale typically come at a cost to the engine’s durability, this is typically due to improper calibrations that are simply after one goal regardless of engine health – maximum power. Dinan’s stage 2 mappings when used in conjunction with supporting hardware are safe and reliable without sacrificing long-term reliability or performance. Dinan performance engine software is so much more than just turning up the turbo boost after all. It is a fully re-tuned engine management program that maximizes power while keeping all the BMW factory safeguards in place. In most cases Dinan software engineers also implement their own additional safety precautions in order to guarantee flawless performance that may not have been needed with factory power levels/programming. Protecting your BMW, while giving the most performance, is the definition of "Performance Without Sacrifice". To do just that, drivetrain and engine components are analyzed for strength, and then the calibration is tested on the dyno and in the real world for durability and drivability. This process has been a cornerstone of Dinan software development for decades and a major reason why Dinan performance tunes are often labelled as being the smoothest, factory-like solution in the marketplace.

With factory-like reliability/safety and staggering performance, it’s hard to find a reason not to upgrade to stage 2. That “new car” you always wanted is hidden right in front of you. Let Dinan give you the keys so you can enjoy it.

Features/Benefits:

• More Power. Max gains of 169 WHP / 206 lb-ft of torque over stock on 104 octane and in conjunction with the Dinan big turbo and an upgraded intercooler. Consult the product page for performance charts for additional octanes.
• Dinan Stage 2 performance software includes a limited lifetime warranty against defects in the software and provides free updates and reflashes as they become available. Labor or shipping charges are not included in the warranty.
• Access to numerous octane calibrations (91, 93, 100 and 104) depending on your needs.
• Full map rescaling for drivability from idle to wide-open throttle and everywhere in between.
• Optimized boost control, cam phasing, fueling, airflow and temperature controls for maximum power output that is also safe and reliable.
• Top speed governor (VMAX) removed.
• Sport Cooling mode in sport / manual modes.
• Upgradeable from DINANTRONICS Elite via trade-in program.
• Retains all BMW factory engine damage safeguards and adds additional safety protections.
• Torque gains drastically improve acceleration.

COMPATABILITY NOTICE

BOX CODES: The N55 engine and its multitude of variants account for several 100 unique box codes across various platforms. While Dinan has created files for nearly all of these permutations, there is a chance you may have a box code that we have not seen. If this happens to be the case we will need to create a file for your vehicle. This process could take several days and multiple dealer visits.

ADVERTISED PERFORMANCE: Advertised performance data is based off of use of the Dinan Big Turbo and the Dinan Dual Core Intercooler in conjuction with the Dinan Stage 2 software. While we do not make an intercooler solution for all N55 vehicles alternative intercoolers may be used but may result in different performance gains or other unforseen limitations in cooling.






DINAN N55 ENGINE PERFORMANCE SOFTWARE FAQ:

I already own a DINANTRONICS Elite kit for the N55 engine, can I switch to the flash?
Yes, you can trade in your existing DINANTRONICS Elite kit and exchange it for a flash tune. When going from DINANTRONICS Stage 4 to the Stage 2 flash there is no charge. When going from a lesser level DINANTRONICS to the Stage 2 flash you will incur a charge that is equal to the price difference between the Stage 1 and Stage 2 flash. Pricing listed is dependent on trade-in of registered, first-hand units. Used, second-hand units do not qualify.

What is the cost to upgrade from a previous stage of software?
When upgrading between stages you will not be required to pay full price. You will only be charged the difference in price between your existing stage and the new one. Please note however that you will still need to purchase any supporting hardware that may be necessary for the upgraded stage.

When I purchase a Stage 1 or 2 N55 flash do I only have access to one of the octane mappings?
When a stage 1 or 2 N55 flash is purchased you obtain licenses for ALL the various octane maps. However, only one map can be loaded on the car at any given time so if you wish to use a different octane then what is initially loaded it would require a trip to your authorized Dinan dealer for a reflash. Labor / install charges to perform this service would be at the discretion of the dealer. We recommend loading the octane mapping that is most commonly used for the vehicle (91, 93 most likely) and only do a map change for special occurrences such as a track day.

I do not live near a Dinan Dealer can I still purchase Performance Software?
At this time Dinan N55 Engine Performance Software must be installed through one of our authorized dealers. Our dealer list is constantly expanding however so check out the dealer locator often at https://www.dinancars.com/authorized-dealers/ to make sure a new dealer has not begun servicing your area. Alternatively, the DME can be sent in directly to Dinan to bench flash. If interested in this method please contact the sales/support team at support@dinancars.com and they can assist.

Can I flash my vehicle back to the stock tune?
Yes, you have the ability to flash the vehicle back to stock but the process would need to be completed by a dealer. There is no cost to do so from Dinan but you would potentially be subject to dealer labor rates to perform the service.

What if I am not happy with my Dinan Engine Performance Software purchase? Is there a return window?
All Dinan engine software include a 30-day money back guarantee with no questions asked. If for any reason the owner is dissatisfied with the Dinan engine software, they may return to the place of purchase for a full refund, provided they are within the 30 day period from the time of the initial purchase. Labor or shipping charges are not included in the guarantee and are at the discretion of the place of install.

I have the stage 1 flash tune I got it when it just came out but I am not interested in paying my dealer 80 bucks for flashing a tune and if there is something that needs to be fixed like last time its another 80 bucks to reflash it is there a way I can get this map without going to the dealer?

Only other path at present would be to remove and send the DME in to us and we can bench flash it.

What is stopping you guys from vending your tune on bootmod3 or mhd? The end result is the same and most of these cars are out of warranty anyway

Go to dealer to flash or send in your dme? And have to pay each time? Jeez that is so 3 years ago.����

So it needs the dinan turbo, intercooler, and I am assuming the intake and axle back to achieve these numbers. That is the same items required for the piggy back stage 4, but with less output?

Seems more feasible to keep my piggyback stage 2 or go bm3...

Intake and exhaust are not required for the stage 2 flash— just the big turbo and an upgraded intercooler. As far as power goes— the flash is superior to stage 4 DINANTRONICS. DINANTRONICS (DPT) is shown in BHP so if you compare like graphs you will see peak HP is essentially a wash (although gains are more consistent across the band on the flash) but there is significantly more torque on the flash. The flash also has a fuller bottom end where the DPT is more of a linear progression that builds at the top end. That's great for racing but for most guys you aren't at WOT all the time so low/mid range power is actually preferred since that's where you live. On top of all that the flash is simply a more complete tuning solution as it touches more parameters— and directly. Then you have the other stuff like governor removal, additional built in safeties, and octane choices that the DPT doesn't.

why in 2020 would you still expect customers to go to a dealer to change a map when technology is being used to do it over wifi from the comfort of our garages. The suggestion of sending in the DME every time is preposterous. Taking out the whole intake manifold is not the most user friendly thing to do.

Not in disagreement with you. We have been working tirelessly on revamping our delivery tools from the ground up which is/has been a long road thus far and still in development. That DTC solution from Dinan is coming. Until then, since the mappings are already complete, it was deemed prudent to just release them the old traditional way just so they are out there and an option. Not to mention it gives those customers with DINANTRONICS an option to upgrade to something a bit better/robust with no downside.
