The sad part about this is that pushing limits is that much harder, with even the slightest improvement possibly costing a lot of money.

But if you want to get away from another car, you might want to invest into such techs. For F10 BMW M5 users, you can get a bit more from a brand new air intake from Dinan. The new piece is built mostly out of carbon fiber, also helping shed a little more weight.

To make sure the cold air intake is properly used, the whole deal is sealed tight. This all sounds all so far, but unfortunately, there is also some bad news. Due to new emission regulation laws, the Dinan carbon fiber air intake for the F10 BMW M5 is banned from California and other similar states.

Would they be AC Schnitzer? Or Maybe Alpina? Or why not, Dinan.

Of all the names I have listed, only Dinan is US based, and as such, he is quite a big thing in the states. But where did it all begin? Like most successful companies, it has to have started with a strong passion. Steve Dinan, founder and boss of Dinan Engineering, shared with us a bit of the story.

Dinan, as an enthusiast, came a long way from working in various shops. Back in 1979, he thought he knows enough to try and make it on him own, an so Dinan Engineering was born, a company with the sole purpose of taking BMW products to the next level. Did they manage that? Only BMW owners that tried their kits can attest to that. What we know is that they are now planning an upgrade for the F10 BMW M5, which will take the car up to 670 Hp and 813 Nm of torque.

The same can be said about tuning companies, as they take the love for cars and turn them into amazing projects, and subsequently get rewarded for it.

Of the tuners that work closely on BMWs, Dinan is one of the big players right now. Yet its humble beginnings were in Steve Dinan’s garage, where he meddled with vehicles he loved. Now the whole Dinan Engineering is a huge enterprise, encompassing top notch workers and high end tech.

With them being successful in Motorsports, too, Dinan has a big future ahead, and it will continue to bring high quality products for BMW owners for years to come. Sharing a bit of the passion with the public, Steve Dinan allowed for a video to be shot in their facility, a video you can watch just below.

And Dinan Engineering delivered it in the form of a bolt on exhaust system.

Constructed out of high quality stainless steel, the Free Flow exhaust is built to fit just right on your BMW 1M. Besides the more aggressive soundtrack, the exhaust also provides a small boost in power, which is always welcome.

“Dinan’s goal has always been to improve performance without sacrificing reliability” said Steve Dinan. And to keep true to his words, his company also offers a new car warranty for every product they sell. For the exhaust tips, Dinan offers two choices: a laser engraved polished or optional satin black ceramic coated quad tips.
