Dinan CAI & MAFS, Supersprint Headers, Dinan Stg 4 software?

I've currently got Dinan CAI, MAFS, and Stg 3 software. I will be adding Supersprint headers soon. Anyone running this combo with Dinan Stg 4 software. Upgrading from Dinan 3 to 4 software would be a lot cheaper than buying PC, etc. Thanks.

No idea, but I've been contemplating the Dinan CAI + MAFs as well as the Stage 4.

i had that combo. I went from powerchip to dinan stage 4, after adding the mafs (already had the headers and pc for header software). it worked well. The dyno said i re-gained my lost low end torque that i attributed to the supersprint headers.

In other words, i installed SS headers (and complimentary software), lost a little low end torque. Added dinan mafs and stage 4 software and gained back that lost torque, so i was pleased with the combo.

Currently running a custom version of dinan software.

That was one of my concerns. I'm adding the SS race cats as well and if I get a SES light with Dinan Stg 4 software from the cats, I guess I'd have to go Powerchip to eliminate the cat induced SES.

Does Powerchip have a program for the Dinan MAFs, or is it a custom tune option only?

I have a Dinan CAI and MAF kit waiting to be installed, but I'm not sure what I'm going to do for software. I also want headers, so I figure it's best to do it all at once.
