Although I have an F07 trust when I say the difference is noticeable. The thing is the drivability/civility is still there, off the line, mid-range, and beyond.
The shifts points are very smooth and crisp. Goes through 8 gears as easy as 5.

I know you guys have the six speed (excluding the v12) but I am sure the sensation is just as intoxicating for you with the Dinan Stage 1 reflash.

The B7 with the Dinan ECU must be otherwordly, and at least it matches AMG latest V8 offerings. Wonder what the folks at Alpina annnnd BMW M feel about this
