Hi guys,

I’m looking for advice for a SoCal shop that can help me finish my swap project. I have an e91 N54 6MT swap project that was started years ago. Originally the car was at LTMW and sat there for years. I was finally able to get them to get the car running and I took the car out after being fed up with getting the run around for so long. With work and having a baby I lost track of time and the car sat again. Now I want to get the project completed and ideally state reffed. The car starts up every time and runs, but electronics etc needs to be wrapped up since the car has a list of codes. I’m in too deep to let this project go unfinished.

Any leads on who can help? Thanks in advance.

Lol the car is actually with Richard, but he doesn’t have the space/time for bigger projects right now.

Solid shop though and I use him for my F31 work.

I came across a video which they built an M3 E91, so definitely they can do it.
