The Stage 1 tune however is worth it.

As far as numbers, the only real world numbers other than Dinan's posted ones are from users in their documented 1/4 mile runs. The Stage 1 tune seems to cut 1/2 second off the 1/4 and likely close to 1/2 sec on 0-60. Dinan claims their stock and S1 dyno numbers were done on two machines including a Mustang dyno.
Does the M Performance exhaust come only on true M cars? Is it the same as the M Performance exhaust sold as an accessory on ShopBMWUSA? Also is it controllable from the cockpit like that on my Z06? Thanks--Bob
