Dinan exhaust on the 330ci sounds great and looks way better than the AA I use to have the AA it looks like poop! Dinan intake is nice aswell I have both!

I have heard the Dinan CAI sucks in water at times? But im not educated well on them. Havent heard many dinan exhaust. AA is not very loud. Try supersprint for something in the middle. Just the muffler, not the full exhaust. Unless, u want the full exhaust, which will be louder. Bavarian makes good CAI, im happy with mine. Look into software too, to take full advantage of chip and exhaust. Conforti very good. Bavarian is very similar. Good luck, and buy a stick!

Check out the ECIS intake for your car. I've had 3 of them in the past for various vehicles and they were all bulletproof.

I had the ECIS intake on my 330Ci and loved it. Combined with my Rogue DMS exhaust, I was extremely pleased with the sound and performance.

Dinan's exaust is an axelback (muffler), it sounds awesome with the CAI. I would recommend it, you a get a clean and refined sort of sports car sound. I just basically cant stand a raspy exhaust, i did alot of research and to me the dinan isnt the loudest or gives the most power but overall it is the cleanest.

I have AA and it sounds OK. If knew better back then I would've bought the TSE3 from UUC.

I had it installed around 40k miles and now I have 96k and it's been problem free. You can't really feel the difference but it's there.

if you want to pay 900$ for an exhuast that is barely louder than stock I say go for it (Dinan that is) There are tons of better ones out there. As TDC mentioned Rogue, B&B tri flow, Super Sprint, AA......

Fyi I have The Dinan S package on my car plus throttle body and stage 3 software. If I could do it all over, I would buy different parts from different companies and save quite a bit of money.

Good luck to you in your decision
