BBK installer recommendation NY/NJ?

paradocs98 · 01-11-2011, 06:28 PM

Looking at a Stoptech BBK for my E90 M3. I don't trust myself to do it. Any recommendations for good installers in the NY metro area/Long Island? Is it worth it to suck it up and pay the exorbitant dealer labor rates because they know our cars best, or can you get top-notch performance work done around here by an independent for less? Thanks. I wish we had an IND or eas around here--even Turner is 3.5 hrs away...

I have been to martini auto concepts in ny to do my midpipes and they do some serious work in that place and some very good work. I feel like they are a little pricey but if you don't care to put an extra dollar and be happy try them out. I believe they can do brake work there but I'm not 100%

I vote for doing the work yourself but if you are not comfortable doing it, then there's plenty of top notch shops around here.

Other than the ones mentioned above, another excellent option is TKX Performance out in Long Island. http://www.tkxperformance.com. They work on a LOT of BMWs and other exotics.

They performed the subframe reinforcement on my pervious E46 M3 and I couldn't have been happier. They take care of your car.

Taso and his crew know their shit! They do all the performance mods on my car

Good luck

I'm throwing in North East Motorsports in Mahwah NJ. They're the original crew from Motorworks West. When you pull up to their parking lot you'll see a couple of race track prepped E46 M3's. You'll know they know how to do BBK's right.

+1 - Mike and Al are top notch. Beautiful and well equipped shop as well.

personally i would do the install myself (done it on my E46 M3) to save money on labor and peace of mind.

Kyoshi71 · 02-09-2011, 10:40 AM

I'll bang it out for you with my trusty pliers. I never needed anything else

gthirtyfizle · 02-09-2011, 12:20 PM
