DINANTRONICS now available for F80 M3 & F82 M4



D-TRONICS Performance Tuner Description

The D-TRONICS Performance Tuner is a highly engineered and sophisticated piece of computer hardware and software that enhances engine performance, without negating or voiding your new car warranty coverage and without affecting long term reliability or the functionality of on-board diagnostic systems. It was also designed to be emissions legal in 50 states (E.O. Pending). The ultimate objective of developing this piece of technology was to provide the ability to control every signal entering and exiting the BMW factory Engine Control Unit. These items are unique to Dinan and together they embody the apex of performance engineering in a powerful, reliable, and warrantied package.

The Dinan Difference

The biggest benefit of Dinan's D-TRONICS Performance Tuner is our ECU has the...

"...capability of setting an optimum target lambda (fuel mixture) as well as correcting short term trim which is the difference between target and scheduled fuel mixture. By matching these two correctly we can reduce knock sensor activity which will make smoother performance, protect the catalyst, increase power and allow us to make it emissions legal."- Steve Dinan



Well Engineered

Plug-in tuning devices all have one thing in common, they send a modified signal to the factory ECU, telling it the boost pressure is below target values. This then causes the factory ECU to raise the boost pressure to what it thinks is the correct value. This modified boost pressure signal causes errors in fuel mixture and ignition timing. These errors can cause the on-board diagnostics systems to set faults, but they can also cause exceedingly high catalyst temperatures and a loss of power. In addition, when power is increased, exhaust gas temperature will increase as well and this must be countered with a slightly richer air/fuel mixture. The D-TRONICS Performance Tuner uniquely has the capability to adjust target Lambda, correct short term trim as well as ignition timing errors induced by raising boost pressure. This enables Dinan calibration engineers to optimize air/fuel mixture and ignition timing at elevated boost pressure throughout the entire gamut of engine RPM and engine load. Additionally, the ability to correct short term trim corrections (the difference between target and scheduled fuel mixture) remain within OEM specifications. This minimizes knock sensor activity, which in turn means smooth engine performance, catalyst protection and power increase, while this is also required to make the car emissions legal. Dinan engineers have worked for two years on the D-TRONICS Performance Tuner in efforts to provide BMW enthusiasts with Performance without Sacrifice.

Designed for the Future

The Dinan D-TRONICS Performance Tuner was engineered with future expansion of functionality in mind. Boasting the most powerful processing power on the market the D-TRONICS Performance Tuner can handle more functions and processes than any of its contemporaries. To that end the Dinan performance tuner is capable of interfacing with the CAN and FlexRay communication systems which allow for controlling powertrain functions, among others. This means that when new functions are developed there will be no need for a new box, just a short software update at our shop.

Satisfaction Guaranteed

Dinan guarantees you will be impressed by the D-TRONICS Performance Tuner and the performance it provides that we offer a 3-Day return policy. If you aren't satisfied with what the Dinan solution brings to the table within 3 days of install you can go back to us for a full refund (installation labor costs still apply).

The Dinan ECU takes like 2 minutes to get to and unplug.

Wow, if this was using Dinan's dyno, the S55 stock is in fact significantly underrated (even assuming a 12% drivetrain loss) as Dinan uses a wind-tunnel simulation (why the S65 dynos higher at Dinan). Dinan uses a 15% standard gets you a 484 crank, which seems a bit high. I don't know about enforcement of EU regulations, but based on the dyno and assuming a 12% drivetrain loss (vs 15) you still get 460 bhp.

Another piggyback system i have heard nothing but issues with this stuff from tuners all over Germany. I plan to wait until a true reflash will come to the market. Does anyone know if this Dinan kit mentioned will actually log data into the stock ECU for a dealer to see?
