In your case it was advantageous to go with Dinan because of your employee discount but for normal people to pay list prices is just
idiotic, $450 matsOriginally posted by Simon SWhen a dream is a dream for too long - it becomes a fantasy..

Dinan is overpriced, I agree. At the time I bought my supercharger kit, the only other company that was offering them was RMS and ESS. Dinan's kit is expensive, but its engineered very well. Much better than the other two kits that were available at the time. It wasnt until 6 months later that AA began offering their SC. If I had to do it again, I would probably go Dinan just because the Vortech has more room to play than the Rotrex in terms of raising the boost.
Dinan has a "point" system by which your car qualifies for the badge, which is 10 points by the way. The supercharger gets you an automatic 10 pts and things like floormats are only worth 1 pt. It's all on the Dinan website...
Dont forget, Dinan mods have no effect on your factory warranty.I Timothy 2:1-2

$1000 for a rebaffled stock e30 exhaust is awesome, I want one. Sounds pretty good, if you like rasp.
They're hp gain claims are a bit inflated as well, 15hp gain from a catback?
I guess if you want to modify a brand new bimmer it's the way to go but otherwise, there are far better choices available in most cases.

Sorry, but you've got no room to be criticizing anyone's car.
If you want to criticize each other start a stickie thread.
Otherwise say what you think about the guy's car and be off.
The kid likes it. If you want to discuss the quality vs. cost of Dinan, start a post.
I think it looks very nice by the way.
Any plans for the future?Yours truly,
Rich
