Congrats OP!
My friend mge92 shares the same sentiment of his Dinan stage1 on his X3 28i (N20)

Can't wait to hear about the mpg also!
Actually Flash Tune brings out better numbers but still reliable & even smoother!
Also because the GSR Dyno was in SoCal on 91 octane, so ours on East Coast with 93 will be a big noticeable difference.

ECU Flash are using Wheel Horse Power and Wheel Torque while Dinan is using Crank Numbers so you're not getting the numbers they say in their Dyno chart. They're pretty much using the number naming as BMW would. Because essentially everyone is going to get different HP/TQ depending on altitude, fuel and other factors.

Not to thread jack but for ex. view here my friends X3 28i Dinan stage1 and my X3 28i Racechip .. Both are N20 engines, while his is 1st gen N20 (MWG), mine is 2nd gen (EWG) (7/2013 build) which may be minor adjustment better.
