    Not sure, let me sleep on it. You are aware with the issue I have with it described in the first post right?

    Dinan seems to stay stock with the customer offerings. It is what helps the product line maintain BMW's blessing and warranty.

    My E34 Dinan 5, even kept the stock PCV. When I was in touch with their warranty department, I was assured Dinan never modified the stock system.... simply added off the shelf SC parts.

    Now thry did stroke many motors. I spoke w/ a big brother of my Dinan 5: an E38 Dinan 7. That m60B40 was stroked to b44 specs but really, it was just what BMW was about to do, or maybe even doing, with that motor anyhow, no?

    All that to say, really the turbo, the plumbing and electronic box (Dinantronics XX) should give you a Dinan turbo.


    Sure you don't want any trades ? Talking myself into this thing....;D

    I have a similar install of the 'Dinan Turbo System'

    This is in an 1988 325iX.



    With the car's paperwork is a fax from Dinan, circa 2006, that laid out three options for the then-owner of the car:

    • 2.7 stroker motor, "This motor will make 220hp."
    • 2.5 liter turbo motor, "This motor will make 300hp." (it refers to using a 'factory long block')
    • 2.7l stroker/turbo motor, "This motor will make 350hp."


    My takeaway is that Dinan was fine with putting the turbo system on a stock motor.

    Hey Jeff! Sorry for the delay man. Not a silly question at all. The kit is designed specifically for the stock b25 long block. No upgrades are needed. The only modification needed to make it all work, is one of the turbo oil lines needs to be tapped either into the oil pan or the block itself. Dinan drilled toward the rear of the block just above the oil pan.

    I saw this when you first posted it,but it's somehow more interesting today

    Silly question perhaps, but did Dinah design this to go on a stock b25 long block or are there certain upgrades that need to or should be done ?
