I think MTM is more comparable to Dinan on terms of pricing. I have a feeling that other tuners (APR,GIAC) will be making a better aftermarket ECU for half that price. Also we all know how a company can charge premium prices for aftermarket parts especially if they're the only option for that specific mod. The price will eventually come down just like how like it does in the past with FI'd cars.

Seriously? I can understand the M3 since they're totally different but a stock S4 is pretty much the same thing as a stock 335i in terms of performance. If there are tuned 335i's beating stock M3's in the straight then I have no reason to believe that a tuned S4 will do the same which it did (140mph+ doesn't count).

I'm curious as to why it seems like you're getting so defensive? No one said the S4 is comparable to the M3 overall. The M3 wins in everything stock for stock. The only time where a S4 might out shine a stock m3 or even a lightly modded M3 is in the 1/4 and that's all I see happening. But seriously, who gets an M3 to run it in the 1/4?
