N20 Turbo Upgrade

I want to do either the Pure turbo or the Dinan. Has anyone actually done one of these. Who does the tune? With the Dinan, do I install it myself and then go to BMW to have the wastegate adjusted? I want to do this but there's no point if I cant get it tuned and set up. Can anyone please help? I'm in Miami.

Hey, I've read some posts around here saying that for the DINAN turbo, it isn't much of an increase if you don't have the DINAN tune optimizing the new turbo. I haven't seen anyone on here use the Pure Turbo upgrade yet though.

Without a tune an upgraded turbo is pretty pointless. Just add in some lag without any real benefit.
