Dinan no longer doing current-Gen Mini mod's

Would love to see Dinan start doing current generation models of Mini performance, but it seems like they stopped w/ only the 1st Gen.

Thoughts?

It would be nice to see them start making upgrades. It may keep things in the family and allow mods backed by BMW.

It seems they are getting out of the MINI business all together as they are selling off all stock at 50% off an state they "discontinuing the MINI porduct line"

Dinan discontinued their MINI business about 2 years ago.

My repair shop offers Dinan chips as a Mini performance upgrade. If Dinan has stopped producing and/or supporting their Mini line, I'd be leery of buying a chip even if it was sold at a reduced cost. Thoughts? What are the other options to Dinan? I currently run my Mini in stock class for autocross but am looking to use it for more track days in the coming years.
