So I know there's a sticky on local shops, but I'd like to hear some opions. Im gettin my HFS-4 kit in the mail today says fed ex and want to start planning my attack. I want to install it ASAP but I feel like meth is a risky install and I don't want to go to the wrong shop. It'd be a bonus if the shop can tune it as well as I'm running Cobb, but if not I could always wait to a later date to have it tuned as long as its installed properly. Id also be down for a member to install it as long as they've done it before. Any advice would be appreciated (also its a trunk mounted kit the twin tank by Jeff Howerton)

Since you're running the COBB tune you might want to get Akuma Motorsports (Woodbridge, NJ) to do the install. They're doing exactly what you're looking for (the install & tuning) for another forum user, woptang22. I'm not sure if he's getting the meth trunk mounted, but they'll be making him a custom ATP Map to run with the meth.

Last time I spoke with him he said that the car would be ready next week. Very excited to see his numbers.

Petrolwerks in Lindenhurst for the install, in case you don't want to travel to NJ.

Yeah I checked them out off the Cobb running website maybe ill give them a call. I was also thinking about this place called tach motor works which my friends swear by, plus they have this tuner named JR there that everyone raves about. I guess ill give them both a call.

def go to Akuma, tell them i sent you. You can have the car tuned the same day in most cases, the install isn't that lengthy.

Look at the Akuma Staff Profiles & read John's

I would get it installed at PetrolWerks then go to Tach for tuning. Both are great shops but Tach is focused mostly on evo's whereas Petrol has decent BMW experience.

Looks like you finally dumped the Procede heh. How's Cobb working out for you?

Loving it! fuel trims don't go over 16! On stage 2 aggressive while on the PROcede I was maxed out all the time! Also logs look clean solid AFR and steady boost so I'm defiantly happy with the switch.

Ill check them out where are they located? and yeah I actually heard not so good things about Tach installs. But this guy JR from who works there from what I hear is a tuning beast!

And to everyone else Ill give Akuma a call tomorrow if there open and see what they say. I was also suggested to go to Nightshift Performance which was one Turbo Trix another on of my friends swears by it for install purposes.
