Looking for people in Orlando

Hi all.
Bought myself a sexy little 09 135 a few months ago and I wanna start adding power with a piggyback and a few bolt on toys. I work at one of the local theme parks maintaining the roller coasters (so I have a good toolkit and decent mechanical sympathy) but I have 0 experience with n54 motors and I don't wanna ruin my new toy playing around with an engine I have no personal knowledge of. I'm looking for hobbyist tuners who wanna share some laughs (and maybe some dusted knuckles) and help me familiarize myself with the engine bay of my new car as I start bolting on more power.

Spaceball 1 must get to LUDACRIS SPEED !

Ive built 2 335i's and am in Orlando. I don't have garage since I live in DT but wouldn't mind meeting up with some other enthusiasts on the weekends or after work or something. Keep me posted.

Hey all. Great to see all the interest. My jb4, oil catch can, and oil cooler valve came in a couple days ago. I'm hoping the oil, oil filter, and spark plugs will get here before this weekend so I can do the install Saturday. I'll pm y'all as soon as I figure out where I'm gonna do the work!

I'm in Orlando, but not much to show off as I really only have wheels. I don't have the mod budget a lot of bimmer owners seem to have

The only meet I can find in Orlando this weekend is happening at the Orlando Grand Prix Saturday at 8pm. Maybe they'll let us race Bavaria's finest round the go cart track! >;-)

We will have some meets coming up shortly. Make sure to check the Facebook group (Florida Bimmer Orlando Chapter)
I am working on setting up a Fall Social right now. Also we will have a group from Orlando and Tampa that will be going to the V2 Labs meet.
