BM3 Impressions

So I wanted to give a huge thanks to Drew@Sonic MS. We've been going back and forth about my car and what I would like to accomplish and hes been more than helpful through all of my nitpicking. Not only did we get the install done but we did it last minute and he was always accommodating. We installed BM3 and ER DP's along with some charge pipes up top and the car has been running like a dream since. He's always been super responsive and willing to help out whenever possible.

I had my first track day with the mods last weekend and HolySh*t its intense. I've been trying to decide if I should buy aftermarket exhaust and really, the sound difference is plenty with just the DP. Any one on the fence I'd suggest get the tune and down pipe first then spend the 4-8k for exhaust if you're not happy, this was one thing Andrew told me first. Anyone in the bay area looking for a legit shop (not bad mouthing others, this is the one I chose!!) check them out. Sonic Motorsports does dang near everything. Thanks again Andrew!

Sonic MS is one of the most legit shops that specializes in high performance cars in the Bay Area, especially for the BMW crowd. There are other shops that are credible, like Speed Element, but Sonic MS is just on another level.

Bay Areeeeaa! You should come out to the next cars and coffee in the marina area. Go for a cruise out to the 35 or north sometime.

Not to mention the fact that while you're there you can peruse the other shops and exotic cars, visit the auto museum, grab a beer at the cafe. It's not a bad place to spend an afternoon while your car is worked on.

Ah the old brackets move. Probably could have searched to find a way to do that since the double @ was confusing the forum. Thanks Justin.AutoTalent
