Best BMW Illinois performance and/or maintenance shops?

Anyone in Illinois have any drivetrain mods completed. I am switching to DSS axles and need a good shop that is trusted to pull mine and install the DSS ones I'm getting. Really contemplating not doing it myself if I can get a decent price. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Are you close to BMW of Westmont? I've frequently worked with a SA there that has always taken great care of my car.

Thanks for the reply. I actually did pull them myself and sent them out. I would still like to know a good BMW performance shop in Illinois. Im in Naperville so kind of centrally located in the Chicago land. I plan on putting in SSP clutches next, but I don't want to attempt that on my own. I do have ISTA D but not ISTA P. I was hoping to find someone with some knowledge that maybe could educate me on it. I have only used it to read and clear codes so far. I like the software, and Im pretty mechanically inclined, but when it come to programming or taking further steps I have no knowledge of that. Anyone interested in offering some lessons?

Great, I'll PM you the name and contact info of the German shop that I use based out of Naperville. He's a bit of a drive but the guy is a veteran and really knows his stuff.
