SoCal BMW Performance Shop?

I'm looking to get my car to a shop to potentially have the n55 engine rebuilt or replaced. I upgraded to Pure Stage 2 with port injection, I tested the system and it flooded the engine. Now it cranks, but doesn't start.

I'm located in Gardena, CA. Any shops in the area recommended for this kind of work?

Thanks for the assistance guys! I ended up taking the car to EJ and Eric At M Tech Autocare in Burbank. Car is now running, with no signs of needing a rebuild/replacement engine.

Root cause: injector for cyl. #5 got stuck open after the first test run with the aic6 installed. Fuel leaking into the cylinder = No start

These guys know their stuff and saved me a fortune. Lesson learned, don't buy any injectors from eBay no matter how "OEM" they are.

Buy them from FCP Euro. If they stop working you get free replacement lifetime warranty.
