I'm not saying this guy was the guru of crankhub slip knowledge, but he is one source of data seeing BMW's every single day.

I was just pointing out that I'd value independent shops over dealership service centers on this topic specifically, because they're far less likely to see failed crank hubs at the dealer. Since they are not allowed to install non-OEM equipment on the car, most people with a crank hub failure would take it to somewhere that offers a pinned solution rather than reinstall a stock one with a flawed design (unless it's under warranty).

BM3 Stage 2 OTS, high flow DPs (400 cell), intake, exhaust. Should be at ~500wHP. I have a BM3 flex fuel kit that I'm going to install soon, which should bump the power to ~550wHP on E30. Maybe in the distant future I'll do hybrid turbos if I can justify the cost. Don't think I'll go further as I want to keep this a street car and anything past that point will start requiring upgraded fueling and building the engine.
