Dinan Boost

I found it to be a nice upgrade. I had already done a 15% pulley and Stage 4 software; it seemed to run lean at high rpm. My local dealer was getting out of the Dinan line and I got the boost kit for 1/2 price so it was an easy choice. Fuel mileage actually improved for me by roughly 1-2 MPG.

From your sig i seems you haven't done a pulley reduction. You'll find a big change in performace with the complete boost kit .
