Erick the owner is very knowledgeable and welcoming. Fixed a boost issue I was having with my 2011 Saab 9-5. I had a hard time looking for a shop in El Paso that would work on a Saab. Erick was willing to help me out and the outcome was exceptional. He fixed the boost problem I was having.Although the shop does specialize in very unique performance modifications, they also will work on general maintenance. I would recommend this shop for anyone looking for an honest mechanic that will not overcharge you.

Been going to this shop for roughly a year and have nothing but good things to say. Great customer service from these guys, Eric is a down to earth dude and will tell you everything you need to know and give you reasonable prices. Had a transmission swap done as well as a clutch change done to my 2013 Mustang GT and got my car back within a day or 2. I ll be planning on coming back to these guys in the future.

Took in my gtr for an oil pan change because it was leaking oil and thread was stripped. He has been the most honest person I have met as he figured out it was just a wrong size drain plug. Instead of screwing me over and charging a few thousand dollar job for an oil pan swap, he put the correct drain plug and problem fixed for just a few bucks. That's honesty and integrity you do not see anymore. He gained my loyalty and respect. There's no other shop I would ever take my cars to get worked on. If you are doubting svs you are making a huge mistake. Look no more there is nowhere better in town hands down

Highly recommend.Service: Vehicle maintenance

2 star, customer service is great but work not so much. 1 year and 4 months and a lot of money later the work they had mostly done, which was electrical, finally went bad on me and caused my vehicle to not start anymore. And I say finally because it was giving me hints that it was going to go bad. Now not saying I know everything or a lot at all, Eric and his team definitely has more knowledge than I do but I also know how to trouble shoot and as I suspected electrical was my vehicles problem and had to take it somewhere else to get fixed. When trying to explain my concerns with the electrical problem and explain why it was the work that was performed I was told there s no way it would be that instead of maybe just double checking the work. I had also brought my vehicle back due to a boosting issue I was told by Eric and his team it was the ECU ($400) when after doing a bit of research (which I should have done in the first place) turned out to just be a BOV ($50). I just personally wouldn t do anything wiring wise with them is all.

Best performance shop in El Paso by far. Eric and his staff are knowledgeable, meticulous, and experts when it comes to their craft. Customer service is something Eric takes seriously! All of your needs will be met. If you're thinking about going to SVS stop thinking about it and just do it!

I went to SVS based on their reviews. I took my challenger rt so I could get front and rear camber arms along with lower ball joints and coilovers installed. WOW I love the new stance. I was so impressed with Eric and his staff that I went back two weeks later for a tune that just WOKE my rt up. The people at SVS have a great attitude and are very professional. Eric even took the time to explain options on current setup and any future upgrades I may be interested in. I now see why they have Great Reviews. I will definitely be going back soon. Thanks SVS.

Took my 2006 300C SRT8 for custom tune and DS2 coilovers all around. She sits just the way I wanted, handles better and has more pick up. Eric put my baby on the dyno. And gave her a custom tune. Really happy with the gains. Would recommend svs performance for for any and all automotive work from basic to high performance. Thanks to Eric and his crew.

I was looking for a place that could dyno tune my Silverado after I did a cam swap. I spoke with Eric, he told me what supporting mods would be best and was able to tune my cammed truck in a few hours. Great service, would recommend to anybody.

Had an amazing experience at SVS! From the minute I walked in mike was very attentive and took the time to explain what my vehicle needed. Mike was very knowledgeable and definitely knows what he s doing wouldn t take my car anywhere else. As a female I m always used to mechanics trying to over sell me things I don t need but that s not the case here. Eric and his staff gave me the best customer service! If you re looking to upgrade your car definitely check this place out you ll be completely satisfiedService: Brakes

A great place for car enthusiasts to send their rides to the next level. Had a great experience with the team. They worked on two of my vehicles already and their superb work has shown greatly. Great job and great people! I'm sure I will make future appointments with my vehicles. Stay spicy and get it done with them!

I installed some performance parts on my SUV and did not know how to tune my truck properly. I found SVS through Google reviews and gave them a call. They had me in the very next day on the dyno-tune machine, where I took their entire afternoon. They didn't let me go home that day without my truck having the best tune possible, and I couldn't be happier. All the guys there are great, knowledgeable, friendly, and are motivating me to keep building my truck, so....I now have a permanent performance shop that I can trust. I own a Chevy SUV but they work on any brand vehicle, foreign or domestic. I highly recommend this shop for any of your performance needs.

Always a great experience dealing with the guys at SVS Performance!!! Since day one they have all been extremely helpful and honest. After I had a horrible experience at Audi they helped me figure out the source of the problem on my vehicle and have always been very reasonable with rates. They truly treat you as family!Services: Tires, Oil changeServices: Tires, Oil change

I just got back from SVS. These guys are AMAZING! I haven't taken my car to any shop ever. I needed my car tuned after I installed heads and a cam few other bolt ons. Called these guys up they gave me a price that was very fair. They got me in the next day. Very pleased with results of my Camaro couldn't have asked for more. Lobby is GREAT! Awesome cars on display. Great group of guys. Will return 100%

This shop is outstanding! Eric spent a considerable amount of time talking me through a maintenance and upgrade plan for an early model Corvette that I own. He and his team kept me updated on the progress of ordered parts as well as some diagnostics that were being performed. They resolved an overheating issue I had with the car with minimal effort/expense, and installed some performance mods in a flawless manner. They even removed some overspray from the body that I never mentioned to them. I would highly recommend Eric and his team to anyone looking for an excellent performance-oriented shop run by a guy with passion and integrity. As soon as I have some more $$ to spend on upgrades I'll be back!

I had an Infiniti g35 project car that needed to be resurrected... . After trying multiple shops that either didnt know what the problem was or that gave me some ridiculous price to fix the issues I had came across SVS. Eric and mike were very help. Eric communicated with me consistently and told me everything I needed to know upfront and even gave me recommendations. Once im done installing my Vaydor G35 kit on.my car I will have SVS performance to thank.Services: Electrical, Auto engine diagnostic, Vehicle maintenance

Since the moment i walk in, svs feels like a second home. Erick the owner, will make time to sit down and discuss your current project or any future plans you may have. He is very knowledgeable and will tell you what you need to hear without any BS. You can tell he takes great pride in his work and has high standards for his team. Once an agreement is set, no time is wasted and they get to work quick.Mike the lead mechanic is a beast of a mechanic. He will call you to update you on your build and send pictures of the progress. He went the extra mile with my project and NEVER cut any corners. You can tell he also takes great pride in his honest and great work.Overall, it's been a great experience with these guys over the years. Don't even waste your time elsewhere.

I had a Magnuson Supercharger installed on my 2012 Toyota Tundra 5.7L by Mike and his craftsmanship was superb. Mike was able to technically install my Supercharger in no time at all and my Tundra drives as if it s new again. SVS exceeded all of my expectations being that this was the first performance modification on my Tundra. Eric and Mike were always available throughout the build for any questions I had and we re both very technically inclined. I had the ability to drop in anytime to check on the progress. Thanks to the tune by Eric and the installation by Mike I am now pushing 412 horsepower and 450 torque to the wheel of my 2012 Toyota Tundra. I definitely recommend SVS to anyone looking to update or complete a new/existing build on their vehicle. Thanks again SVS and Mike!
