View Full Version : Tuner shops to visit in the Dallas area The Beastmaster 09-14-2005, 07:13 PM My mechanic is heading to Dallas for a IAIBMW meeting from 9/27 to 10/2. He was looking at places to visit on 10/3 before he leaves to come back to Hawaii. Is it worth it to visit BMP? Any other places of interest? hinzm3 09-14-2005, 07:25 PM BMP would NOT be worth the trip.... Car related maybe RUF in dallas The Beastmaster 09-14-2005, 07:30 PM He also used to wrench for a P car GT Cup team and has a nice DP935 in his garage. He's looking more for the BMW and MINI stuff. hinzm3 09-14-2005, 07:41 PM I went to BMP 2 years ago for a car show/meet that they sponsored. Its not worth the 2.5 hour drive from Dallas imo. Maybe some of the other people that went will chime in.

I visited them when they had DINAN day. They are really big on the DINAN stuff. They have a few blown M3s. Not a very huge place but the guys there have some nice rides. weaksauce 09-15-2005, 09:54 AM good places to visit, Mike's, my place, Sean's who else does work? :nutz: thanks for leaving me out...... :fingerboi Gofast 09-15-2005, 10:07 AM It's a trek, but Bavarian Hypersport in North Houston is definitely top-notch. Joel just built a customer e46 M3 that's delivering something like 380 at the wheels normally aspirated; and he's building another one as we speak that he predicts will decently trump that.

Austin 09-15-2005, 01:03 PM did you get my PM? is the car fixed? its showing TPS sensor which I have one off my spare motor at parents house so this weekend I'll swap sensors and see what happens. I didn't find any loose connectors. Unplugging the battery made my windows no longer double click to roll up. I can't get it to show me the fault codes anymore so if it needs the TPS to show the throttle wide open then with a faulty TPS unit it would loose that ability leaving me to believe its the TPS gone bad. I need a fault code reader. SG_M3 09-15-2005, 04:51 PM It's a trek, but Bavarian Hypersport in North Houston is definitely top-notch.
