Performance Shop

Hi,

I'm up here in SE Wisc. and I'm looking for a performance shop that other's would trust their MINI to.

I have a wishlist, that includes, head, cam, TB, header, lightened flywheel, LSD , DFIC, the M62 and possibly and more.

Where do Chicagoland MINI enthusistis take their cars for performance work.

I have heard of Perfectpower, http://www.perfectpowerinc.com/services_min.html

but any others?

We're in Indianapolis, only 3hr drive from Chicago. I have most items in stock. We are an authorized M7 dealer too. Give me a call and I'll help you out any way I can.

I think those are pretty much the three I've heard of. In terms of real involvement in the Mini community and complete enthusiasm, though, I think Way Motor Works is really worth checking out.

I got my pulley done there and the staff is great. Ended up talking for a while when I went to pick up my car.

Hey does anybody know anything about TAG Sport in Geneva, IL down by Dupage Co. Airport on Rt. 38? I know they are a BMW motorcycle dealer but they say they do MINI service too.
