Dinan drop with M performance front splitter?
Just wondering if the front will be too low for the front splitter with the Dinan springs? Thanks for any input!

Dinan claims that the front is lowered by 1/2" front and 1" rear.
With that being said... you have tons of front lip clearance to even consider it being "too low" |

Thanks. Getting the drop done next week. It's been close to 20 years since I've had a lowered vehicle so anymore input would be much appreciated! Thanks again!

Thanks for the input. If that's the case, probably won't get a tune at all since I don't want any issues with warranty. We'll see. Thanks again.

The outputs seems pretty impressive plus you have the warranty. Thanks in advance for posting photos after your install! |

i have a stage 2 on my car from dinan and it feels pretty good to me. I think it's worth it. Had a BMS stage 1 prior and prefer the dinan tune.

Well, I got the Dinan springs and handling package installed today. I also got the Dinan stage 1 tune as well. The ride is a HUGE improvement! Before, I felt the sport mode was too bumpy and both the sport and comfort too floaty. After the install, it's such a huge improvement in ride quality and comfort. The drop is NOT huge. It gets it lowered where this should have been the stance from the factory. I can't say much about the stage 1 tune as of yet because I drove home in traffic. I do agree with what's already been said that power comes on VERY linearly. The initial lurch from stop in sport mode is gone as well Driveability has not been lost and I would say it's improved. Now to wait for the Dinan intake backlog is freed up and I can upgrade to the stage 2!
Here's some pics: Before:
