Developed wholly from the ground up, the Dinan Power Control Unit (PCU) is an evolutionary step in Dinan in-line tuning models based off over a decade of lessons learned in the category. At its core the PCU is like its precursors and installs in between select sensors and the ECU, adjusting these signals in order to achieve increased performance the stock programming is unable to approach. However, what sets the PCU apart is its integration into more than just the fundamental boost sensors but also additional connections--inclusive of OBDII. The result is a more capable system that can do so much more than just increase power. Live monitoring of vehicle health via logging, customizable gauges, and code reading/clearing, among others, are now possible ensuring a seamless tuning experience even a novice can be comfortable with.

The Dinan PCU is controlled by a free Bluetooth app, available for both iOS and Android, and is home to all the potent features the device offers. Equipped with 5 different pre-set performance levels, in addition to stock, you can choose to select your desired output and enjoy more power for a true install-and-forget experience, or you can opt to engage in the more advanced features at your fingertips. Boost by gear customization, as an example, allows you to limit power delivery as you see fit in lower gears ensuring optimum traction and a perfect launch. Where the PCU shines however is in data acquisition and monitoring that gives insight into the vehicle's overall health and makes certain your tuned vehicle is always running at peak potential.

Safety and reliability have been cornerstones of the Dinan brand for generations and not only does the Dinan PCU not hinder any factory safeguards or emissions controls but incorporates its own safeties as well. Going one step beyond our own internal protections, the PCU also grants the end user the ability to monitor up to 20 different engine parameters in real-time via customizable in-app gauges for verification of worry-free operation. Those same parameters can also be logged/viewed in app (or exported to CSV) for further scrutiny if desired.

All told, the Dinan PCU delivers more power and more features with improved reliability and drivability than ever offered before. Performance without sacrifice is alive and well!

SKU variations / Warranty: The Dinan S58 PCU is available with a standard 2-YR product-only warranty (Dinan S58 PCU–D440-0200) or a factory matching 4-YR/50k mile warranty (Dinan+ S58 PCU–D440-0200-W) that covers both consequential damages as well as labor reimbursement. Functionally, the units are identical but carry different warranty terms. In the case of the factory matching warranty Dinan+ PCU, the warranty ONLY applies to the first VIN the unit is installed on. Successive VIN’s will not be granted warranty coverage from Dinan.

DBALZE, 323Ci: "The shark injector is awesome! After I put it in, I could definitely feel the quicker throttle response and more power throughout the acceleration curve. Definitely worth the money to me!"
chrisct, 323Ci: "I installed an XXX short ram cold air intake and the shark injector on my 323Ci and I couldn't be happier. For me the biggest advantage was smoothing out the throttle response, but it definitely feels snappier."
hqbmw, 328Ci: "This Shark really woke up my 328Ci. Cost per performance increase is as good as it gets! Also getting 10 to 15% better fuel economy in "normal" driving."
huyner328, 328Ci: "First change I would like to mention is the increased throttle response, as soon as I shifted and floored it, the car would pull. From 3400rpms to about 5000rpms I think was the sweet spot that gave me a nice little grin on my face. Next I tested the Redline of my car, yup another grin on my face. I definitely noticed that the car moved a little bit quicker with not as much gas consumption on the MPG Gauge. Overall, awesome mod."

Gains of 23 hp @ 6100 rpm and 19 lb/ft torque @ 5000 rpm!!!
We used several E39 M5s on our dyno to establish what the average/typical power numbers are. The dyno charts on the right are from the same car - a 2003 E39 M5 that was already equipped with intakes, mufflers, and running 93 octane. For our Shark Injector dynos we made baseline runs with the stock software and then runs in 3rd gear and 4th gear. The only changes to the car was the Shark Injector software. Why did we post dyno runs in different gears? The 3rd gear run shows the torque gain with the new torque limiters in the software. The 4th gear run is posted to be consistent with the industry-standard of dyno-ing cars in 4th gear. Note: comparing dyno results and wheel horsepower numbers from one shop to another is not advised. What really matters is the gain from stock to modified from the same car on the same dyno.

The Shark Injector plugs into the diagnostic port inside the E39 cabin. With the battery charger supplying power, press the Upgrade button and within minutes the ECU is reflashed with the new performance tune.

RUFM5: "The 93 RACE edition Shark has been very solid in my experience. The air/fuel ratios and power are very smooth and optimal. I also have a wideband gauge and OBD computer to monitor car vitals."
britm3: "Overall, the car feels much sharper in sport and non-sport, the 3rd gear pull really being the highlight for me."
M5CCIE: "Got my 91 octane version installed today. It is worth it's price and much more in my opinion. The car feels much more "eager" and responsive."
Carbon01: "I did the 91Octane TMS/Conforti Shark update last week. I was going to dyno before and after, but didn't have the patience once it arrived. I can say that there is a noticeable difference in 1st thru 3rd. It seems a little more responsive in the higher gears, but not drastic. Transtion from light throttle to full throttle is greatly improved, general drivability is a little better all around and noticeably nicer in Sport."
gt40mki: "I'm glad I bought it-worth every penny-and I'd re-buy again in a heartbeat."
Stika: "Installed the Shark on Friday. I gotta say, the Beast is DEFINITELY quicker. Much stronger on the low end. The drivabilty is much better across the board, at any speed, in any gear. I got the street version with Sport button memory, very nice feature. Don't know what else to add to what has been said already. Worth the purchase to me, I'm very pleased."

Stage 4+ Performance Software for E36 M3, MZ3 (M50 Manifold + Cams + Headers Kit)

Conforti Shark Injector performance software tuned for the an awesome OBD2 package: M50 manifold, Schrick camshafts, performance headers, "24lb" injectors, Porsche 809 3.5" HFM, and intake. This software makes full use of the benefits of the M50 manifold when used with cams and the HFM/intake. Without the software, you're not getting the full effect of these upgrades in the upper rev range. The stock software -- or a regular Shark Injector -- is tuned for low-end torque using the stock manifold and cams. It's like a marathon runner in a 40-yard dash -- he'll put in a good effort but won't be the quickest! Special attention was paid to the low-end andmid-range too so that torque was not lost with the M50 manifold.

With this software you will notice more top end power, a broader torque band, and a smoother running engine. The rev limit is raised to 7000 RPM with the top speed limiter removed. Works with 91 or higher octane fuel.

Required:
"24lb" injectors (actually around 26lb injectors when used at the S52's 3.5 bar of fuel pressure). You must confirm the injector flow-rate at 3.5 bar before using this software. If the injectors were not purchased from us, we may as for the Bosch part number on your injectors.
Porsche 809 3.5" HFM (0 280 217 809) (TMS/Porsche HFM works best) with intake. Note: this will not work with a Euro HFM, 540 HFM, or Dinan HFM. Our software is programmed and written specifically for the Porsche 809 HFM! If you did not purchase the HFM Kit from us, we may ask you for the Bosch part number from your HFM.

Performance software is a  must-have  upgrade on your BMW and you won't find an easier and better software solution than the Shark Injector. Developed by BMW tuning expert Jim Conforti, this device plugs into the car's diagnostic port and flashes new performance files into your car's engine computer (ECU). This particular file includes Stage 1 engine tuning (fuel, ignition, timing upgrades) with EWS-delete programming. There's no removal of the ECU and shipping, no cables, no laptop required - only a battery charger! Installation takes just a few minutes and your engine will perform like never before!

The M52/S52 performance software was developed on the dyno to create maximum power and torque using premium 91+ octane fuel while maintaining BMW reliability and smoothness. The software makes changes to the ECU's maps and algorithms for fuel injection, ignition timing, VANOS and camshaft movement, and transitional fueling. We modify the maps for part throttle and full throttle so you get better response and more torque at all RPM. We also raise the rev limit to 7,000 and remove the top speed limiter. By fine tuning these maps we've been able to improve the S52 engine beyond what BMW did by making more power and torque and a smoother-running engine.

The programming for EWS delete will allow you to use a spare ECU to run the engine. If your original ECU fails, and you find yourself buying a used ECU, you won't have to tow the car to the dealer to have the ECU synced to the car's EWS system. This is also the perfect software solution if you installed an S52 engine in your E36 323/328 - just plug in the M3 ECU and flash with this Shark Injector. This Stage 1 file will bypass the EWS code and give you all of the benefits of our Stage 1 tune.

The Shark Injector plugs into the diagnostic port under the hood of the E36. With the battery charger supplying power, press the Upgrade button and within minutes the ECU is reflashed with the new performance tune. No other software product on the market comes close to how easy it is to install. You can use the Restore button to re-install the stock BMW software at any time. Detailed instructions are included.

Stage 4 Performance Software for E36 M3 (Turner HFM + Cams + Headers Kit)

Conforti Shark Injector performance software tuned for our Stage 4 OBD2 package: Schrick camshafts, performance headers, "24lb" injectors, Porsche 809 3.5" HFM, and intake. This software is tuned around the stock S52 intake manifold. For keeping the most useable torque we recommend using the stock manifold over the M50 part.

With this software you will notice more top end power, a broader torque band, and a smoother running engine. The rev limit is raised to 7000 RPM with the top speed limiter removed. Works with 91 or higher octane fuel.

Required:
"24lb" injectors (actually around 26lb injectors when used at the S52's 3.5 bar of fuel pressure). You must confirm the injector flow-rate at 3.5 bar before using this software. If the injectors were not purchased from us, we may as for the Bosch part number on your injectors.
Porsche 809 3.5" HFM (0 280 217 809) (TMS/Porsche HFM works best) with intake. Note: this will not work with a Euro HFM, 540 HFM, or Dinan HFM. Our software is programmed and written specifically for the Porsche 809 HFM! If you did not purchase the HFM Kit from us, we may ask you for the Bosch part number from your HFM.
Schrick camshafts
Performance Headers (TMS Shorty Headers or similar)

Stage 3+ Performance Software for E36 328i/is/ic, E39 528i, and Z3 2.8 (M50 Manifold + M3 Cam Kit)

Conforti Shark Injector performance software tuned for the awesome OBD2 package: M50 manifold, M3 S52 camshafts, and intake. This software makes full use of the benefits of the M50 manifold when used with cams and intake. Without the software, you're not getting the full effect of these upgrades in the upper rev range. The stock software, or a regular Shark Injector, is tuned for low-end torque using the stock manifold and cams. It's like a marathon runner in a 40-yard dash: he'll put in a good effort but won't be the quickest! Special attention was paid to the low-end and mid-range too so that torque was not lost with the M50 manifold.

With this software you will notice more top end power, a broader torque band, and a smoother running engine. The rev limit is raised to 7000 RPM with the top speed limiter removed. Works with 91 or higher octane fuel.

Required:
E36 M3 MZ3 S52 stock camshafts
M50 intake manifold

DINANTRONICS Sport is the boost controller for the masses. Its simple design/execution allows for easy installation/removal that can be performed in a blink of an eye and yields results you will be sure to feel, and enjoy, from the get go. Coupled with Bluetooth capabilities right out of the box that allows for user controlled adjustability and a live boost monitor to keep track of the action its a value proposition that is unequaled in the marketplace.   

DINANTRONICS Sport plugs into a single sensor which lends itself to a very quick and and discrete installation, or removal, should the need arise. Not only does this connection method offer a simplified install but also effectively utilizes the factory DME, in tandem with itself, in order to re-map boost, fueling, and timing for optimal performance. Once installed DINANTRONICS Sport enjoys connectivity to various smartphone devices courtesy of its built-in Bluetooth Smart system. From the free app one has the freedom to reduce stock boost for valet duties or crank up the boost all the way up to the "race" setting for maximum enjoyment… or anywhere in between. Regardless of what setting is chosen there is a power level for everyone. Also within the app the end user has access to a live boost monitor which streams boost data in real time to the phone very similar in appearance to the sport gauges on the iDrive. Not only will you be able to feel the difference but now you can see it as well! 

Perhaps best of all, the unit automatically detects which engine it is installed upon and loads the approprate mapping. Effectively making a single unit compatible with an extremely wide range of applications making switching to a new vehicle, sharing with another, or selling the unit a breeze.
