Dinan Stage 2 X5 50i 1/4 time?
So here are a few data points for a Dinan Stage 2 on my 2011 X5 50i.
Dyno test 480 lb-ft at the wheels. Bradenton Raceway in Fla, head wind, 85F. 60ft- 1.991, 1/8mi time 8.767s, 1/4mi time 13.638s 100.91mph. Was hoping for better but with the headwind and 85F temps this is what I got. However, raced against a new 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT 4 times where he was doing low 14s, blew him away 4 times until he tapped out and said I don't want to run against you any more. I felt sorry to depress the proud new SRT owner but for me............Priceless. So I guess that my point is that numbers can be very subjective and it is more important to race other cars under the same conditions. Have no idea what my 0-60mph time is and don't know how to measure it without some high $ electronics. Anyone have any suggestions? |

The accelerometers in phones are not that accurate.
I have a GTech Pro which I've had for years and is usually within two tenths and 2mph of track times. I can get below 4.7 sec for 0-60 all day with BMS Stg 1. I think I could run a 13 flat a the track, hoping to get way into the 12s with the Stg 2 beta.

I've had a OG G-tech from the late ninties or early 2000's, and it can be flawed very often based on just road elevation or a bump in the road. But it's not a cheap solution today. That said, there are a lot of viable options out there, the price you want to pay can vary by a large margin.

I have to say that is a VERY interesting level of torque on a 3.0L engine. Almost suspect... Don't get me wrong, I've got the same engine as you and do WANT that. but it almost seems unreal at that engine size, turbo output, not being a diesel...

Yeah, my tuned N63 doesn't make that much torque.

Odds are the incorrect settings were used on the dyno. The correction factor, though most likely the wrong gear used. You want to use a gear that is as close to 1:1 as possible. You did 3rd which is 2.1:1, 6th is a perfect 1.0:1 gearing... I'm not sure if its as simple as your 525ft/lbs and divide by 2.1 though.
Cool bragging rights otherwise. :-p

Have they ever came out with stage 2? Does it require other mods to come with it(exhaust)? Still thinking on stage 1 done. I have another 2 months warranty remaining.

No idea about Dinan. Burger Tuning has a Stage 2 beta that dynos around 450-460whp on 93 octane.
It's a piggy back not a flash.
