I bought a 97 m3 off the boards recently, with the intent of having a more classy, better handling car. I'm a huge chevy guy, but this m3 is a great change of pace.

But... it's just not quick enough.

I intend to turbo this car this summer, I've never done it before (I can barely put on my seatbelt by myself), but I'm really lost as where to take it.

I live in Henrietta, New York, about 10 minutes from the City of Rochester.

Are there any decent places anyone could recommend for me to bring this car to? I'm looking to get that car into the low 13s daily streetable, so I don't think this is too demanding of a job.

If said shop also did maintenance that would be awesome too. I have a dealership literally down the road, but the more I hear about most BMW dealerships, the less excited I am to go there.

Any recommendations would be awesome!
