The RDsport 335 tune was not impressive at all, very weak. That is not to say it is not a good tune, it just does not make big power. I would want to see dyno numbers before buying into claimed figures. Bankrupt? Strong claim, considering how much money they make on their overpriced parts, I don't think that is the case. |

IMO opinion I chose to go with the RDSport rebuild because I think they offer a package that is a tad more powerful (which is the norm), more value for the $$$ and just as reliable. I also own a 380bhp Dinan 335 that I find very pleasing and have tested the RDSport 335 and found it just as pleasing but with a tad more power as well. Chose who you like and think will suit you best!!!!

Nop, not from either of Dinan or RDSport. But we do know a number of other tunners are working on SC kits! They also mostly said they would have them out by now and have fallen behind considerably. GPower of course has thereīs out but is uber $$$$!

Being first to market might not be the ultimate goal for a tuner. It is possible that some tuners would rather spend the extra time testing their product before releasing it. I am not saying that Dinan does or does not do that as I don't know the details of how much testing these tuners do exactly with significant drivetrain mods before releasing them for purchase.
Having said that, has RDSport performed this mod on their own car first? There was mention of a car running in Italy with the kit, but it wasn't clear if it was their or a customer's car.

"To achieve this in the E60 M5, M Division opted to use the same displacement but fitted into a 90* aluminum V10, which yields a more optimal per cylinder displacement and piston dimensions. A 90* design was chosen over a 72* V angle because of its more favorable vibration characteristics." |

So you then ought to be pleased you are not one of the first to get this stroker engine, but some of us clearly do not have those issues. I think youīve made your point Sticky, no problem!! But again, we obviously feel comfortable doing these modifications today.

The fact that most of the R&D has been done on a similar mod for another car sure helps, but the thing is not working until it's really working.
