N55 EWG PS1 vs Dinan

1slow2_ · 06-26-2022, 09:49 AM

2015 M235i x-drive. Looking at PS1 or equivalent turbo options (Dinan, etc.) paired with dorch stage 1 hpfp. Anyone have or had a stage 1 turbo that can talk about their experiences? Not planning to go for over 450 whp and wanna keep the stock like spool. Don't really prefer buying a bigger turbo and down-tuning plus don't wanna mess with a higher horsepower wrecking my x-drive system and transmission. For reference I am planning to run the bm3 stage 2+ e30 multi map

Neither.

Neither unless you enjoy throwing money away for 20hp

As noted above, both are just going to allow you to hold boost slightly better to redline and decrease WGDC by a few %, but you are hardly going to notice the difference, so the cost/benefit doesnt really make sense.
