Dinan and BMW not getting along???

Hey all,

Just wondering if any of you guys/gals heard anything of Dinan and BMW not getting along and it's possible that they might break up? Is it a Rumor or is it true?

..and BMW will have their own line of E9x performace parts in March, 2008 including an ECU reflash..BS-BS-BS. This was told to us by numerous dealerships back in January.

Come on guys, be nice to the newbie. You all were there at one time.

Yes, there is known truth to your question. I've noticed not too many dealers are doing the Dinan tune anymore and most of the dealers are independents these days.

No, there is no truth to the rumor. They are getting along just fine, BMW has just decided they want some of the share in the tuning market and have released their BMW performance line. IMHO, the BMW performance line products are really not that aggressive. Some of what they offer is pretty cool though.

When did they release their E90 performance line?? I can't find anything regarding the BMW Performance air intake.

BMW's performance line for the E90? Supposedly it has been released already, but all I have seen is 135i performance parts.

Some parts are available for the E90s (go to BMWUSA site and look for the Performance Parts under accessories or something like that) but most of the good stuff is still on the way.
