Dinan recently released a stage 3 tune for the 335i
There is now a stage 3 tune that incorporates the new intercooler into the system. The new numbers they have are 400 hp and 429 lb*ft tq. The intercooler should get the turbos running more efficiently overall. I am looking into purchasing that the IC.

I dunno... before people were getting 380hp without any sort of extra junk except if their car didn't come from the factory with a secondary oil cooler.
I don't really see the appeal of spending $3500 more total including the more expensive program, exhaust and the intercooler to get only 20 more hp.

The intercooler and oil cooler are probably good additions to help out the turbo life expectancy. The upgraded intercooler sounds like a nice addition. The oil cooler may have to be bought since I live in 115 degree summers here in Vegas. Plus, I can get a badge of Dinan 3 without having to buy the stupid suspension upgrade that I really don't want. The oil cooler, flash, exhaust, and intercooler will give me 10 points for a badge and plaque.
The new M3 just doesn't have enough stock numbers to beat this tuned up beast of a car. A Dinan 335i coupe will probably beat a M3 down the straights. The high torque that runs at 1500 rpms up to 6000 rpms means that the car pulls strong in every gear.

If you chip it or w/e can you change it back easily? I might want a 335i as a next car, but I would not want to be running nearly 400 hp and 430 torque daily... maybe for track use but if it was daily use i would know I'd rack up too many speeding tickets...

When your dealer service is due (oil change or w/e), you need to take after market wiring comp chip out and back to stock....except dinan products. Authorized dinan BMW dealers can service your car without removing Dinan's parts. BUT, Vishnu or other after market "plug n play" wirings/chip, dealers will give you hard time about it !! That includes, possibility of terminating your factory warranty.
