Shop in SoCal for coding / suspension

I had ohlins road and track suspension installed a month ago but the shop that did it could not remove the M has Kit from the OEM shocks.

Before install they said it would be no problem but after I came back they said they tried but couldn't.

Looking for a shop i in the LA / OC area that can do that so I can sell the m performance has kit, and also looking for a place that can code out the chassis edc error.

Thanks

I used to go to EAS but they consistently overcharge me by hours and make me wait those extra hours for my car just to charge me more. S5X performance in Irvine is way more competitively priced and puts out better work imo so I can’t see anyone having too much trouble with your springs.

Ever since I got my M3, my go to shop has been StudioRSR

Chewerks is in house, so you can get an alignment and corner balance after installation as well.

Studio RSR did the install. The first advisor said it'll be no problem to remove the M Has kit from OEM shocks but then they couldnt get it done.
Also said they have a someone that can code out the EDC error that comes in, and they will set me up for a time to come back....

But I've called 2x about it and it's been over a month, so looking for other options.

Damn, sorry to hear that. I’ve haven’t had issues with them, and they also were able to code out my EDC.

I do know one of their advisors moved to S5X Performance. If you’re close to south OC try them.

I am surprised that Studio RSR could not get it done. I have been going there for my CBC and other stuff. Very friendly staff and reasonable labor rate. I just went once to their new location. Rob does amazing job with the alignment there

Same ^

No complaints about the install by studio rsr, just wish they would've pulled apart the old suspension.

And Chewerks did my alignment after, car feels great 👌🏾
