I'd definitely use FP Auto (Foreign Performance). Mario is the ONLY guy i trust to touch my car. Been going to him before he even became FP Auto.

He's done every single mod and all maintenance on my car. He's fairly priced, but most importantly VERY good at his work and won't screw you just to make money.

I'm going to him for my crankhub early in the New Year after i'm setup for E85.

I'm new to the area as well (Boynton Beach FL). Any good tire shops around with the hookup? These rear tires don't last long with me lol.

i gotta be completely honest with you im not sure getting CH done is worth the $. Odds you spin are low. Unless you go big single turbo should be good. Dont take me word on it though. Just a suggestion since its super $$.

I held off doing it for stage 1 BM3. Went downpipes stage 2 and getting it done for reassurance. I held off because it's pricey. I feel like your safe for stage one. I drove the car aggressive, just didn't do kickdowns or high rpm downshifts. I plan on running the BM3 flexfuel kit and max of an e 50 blend. I wouldn't feel comfortable doing that without crank. Getting it done next Wednesday. Hope all goes smooth.

Instead of running the bm3 flexfuel multi map, should I consider a custom flexfuel tune?

Costco has good deals on tires and they've always done a good job on my M3.

The odds are low, but it's very costly if it happens.

I did not do this upgrade on my leased M4.
If I were planning on keeping the car, I would have upgraded the crank hub.

I did this as I plan on getting custom e85 tune next and it's a piece of a mind. I budgeted for a few months to put the month away.

I also have 80k miles on my car now, when I do eventually sell the car it's basically a must have in my opinion on the higher mileage cars.

Avoid the shop in the second post like the plague. Had HUGE issues with them.

I hear Miami Engines is decent in Boynton
Eurowerks in Boca does great work but is very expensive and prioritizes VIP customers

just got mine done at FP auto as well.
They moved to Boynton Beach so their new shop just opened a few weeks ago.
Mine took a little longer to get done, but that's understandable considering the shop just moved and they were still settling in and I used the opportunity to also do downpipes. brakes, charge pipes and heat exchanger.
I was surprised to see they stock downpipes and CSF heat exchangers a the shop so hit them up if you need anything.
I am very happy with the result, and the price was by far the best I've seen around,

I’ve heard great things about Miami Engines and last time I spoke to them they offered 3k for 4 pin crankhub.

Came back to say that I can vouch for FP Auto as well. Mario's cool to work with and has good prices.

Had my X3 in there a little while back.
