Dinan Sport Installation Video

Hello everyone. I'm currently researching the Dinan Sport tune for my '14 320i XDrive and can't seem to find a clear installation video. YouTube has a bunch of videos but nothing specific to the F30 engine. Has anyone come across any?

I normally drive in Comfort mode, cant feel it as much compared to Sport mode, comfort mode is different but not that much.....Sport mode is really fun though.

Run the Dinan Sport module in Race mode since I have 93 gas in Houston

Seeing as Dinah don't respond to internet queries through their website ...

If you install the stage 1 tuning box yourself, instead of by a BMW dealer or authorized installer - is the back to back bmw warranty maintained or lost?

Thanks for any help with this

This is on X-PH's website for the product...

WARRANTY: DINANTRONICS Sport does not carry the factory matching warranty that Dinan is known for. DINANTRONICS Sport's warranty is a 1 year product only warranty that does not cover consequential damages or labor reimbursement.

the tune itself has warranty no matter who installs it.

This is not talking about the tune's warranty.
This is about the car's warranty.

Dinan offers its own warranty in case BMW refuses to do a repair job and blames the tune.
This does not apply on the Sport tuner

Exactly what I quoted.. This particular warranty unlike Dinan's other products which follow the factory warranty, covers just the DINANTRONICS Sport tuner and no damages to the car (if of course can be proven as such) as a result.. Maybe we are saying the same thing differently?

Either way, it's on my wishlist as an inexpensive tune for the gains and ease of install..

For now will have my buddy modify or rather replace exhaust with straight pipe then nice black tips.. I noticed some of the 330i's come with larger black chrome exhaust tips! Damn BMW!

However, I see you guys carry them on your site..

You guys are right the cheap $299 dinantronicsSPORT module does not come with a warranty for the car...

The stage 1 dinnantronics performance tuner ($1,099) does however come with that supporting warranty. So my question was for that specific product, if I was to install it myself, do I get that dinnan/bmw coverage or not? :
