Yes, Dinan does use this intake on the ISR3, extrude hone and black powder coated. They make 326 ft-lbs of torque @ 5500 rpm and 396 horse power @ 6500 rpm (SAE corrected), and that's done by; using the intake, 8lbs of boost, intercooled, air flow improvements throttle body and HFM, fuel delivery and injectors, and free flow exhaust.

All the articles I have seen on the ISR3, none of them mention anything else, like stroke, displacement, cams, value/head work or the use of headers.

The last race I was in at Road Atlanta during O'fest, I could not but the power down coming out of some of the corners, the wheels would spin at the lower rpm. When I drive the car on the street I get wheel spin at 4000 rpm when I get on it hard.

Every time I drive the car now I'm reminded of the statement I heard many years ago when I first started doing BMW CCA Driving Schools, "It's the most fun one can have with your cloths still on".
