Looking for a Good Tuning/Mods Mechanic or Shop in Maryland (preferably) or Virginia
I would appreciate suggestions for a good mechanic/shop in Maryland that has experience tuning, modifying and upgrading BMWs. I have found some places via Google search but would prefer to have a recommendation from fellow CCA members who have first hand experience working with someone.
Thanks,

You might check out S2 Dynamics and AKTIV Automotive

If BMW Excluservice in Rockville is close to you, S2 Dynamics is 0.2 miles to the south on the same side of the road. Another shop not terribly far from there is AKTIV Automotive in Gaithersburg.
Note: I've never dealt with S2 Dynamics beyond a very informative telephone conversation when I was trying to decide whether to buy the E91 I wound up buying (or the A4 Avant Quattro I passed on, or the Passat W8 I actually considered...) and I've never dealt with AKTIV Automotive beyond the two DIY events (including my very first!) I have attended there, so I can't really rate either one. But my limited interactions with both have gone well, and both seem oriented to the sort of tuning you want.
For myself, Scandinavian Import Servicenter took care of my previous car (a Volvo V40) for a decade, before I bought my E91, even before they became Mini-authorized and then BMW-authorized. They inspected my E91 for me. But they're not really into aftermarket tuning.
