The team over in Temple TX never disappoints. Any of my LS needs or ideas I always feel like I'm taken care of. Even when they are spread thin, I always feel like my voice is heard. Casey is also a master of his profession...so that helps.Services: Transmission, Exhaust, General repairs & maintenance, Electrical, Auto engine tuning, Engine repairServices: Transmission, Exhaust, General repairs & maintenance, Electrical, Auto engine tuning, Engine repair

I dont know where to start for the amount of appreciation, transparency, decency, and respect that Casey and his team have demonstrated. I have a 2018 silverado 5.3, a year ago, I had warhorse performance (now known as horsepower solutions), installing a dod/afm delete as well as a tune. After I year, I felt shuddering in the truck with no CEL. I assumed transmission and had aamco inspect and 4300 later had a new stall converter assuming the GM TSB was the issue. Headed to a tuner down the road and he mentioned a slight misfire, I knew I was near the end of my plugs so I changed them and still and a persistent issue with misfiring on cylinder 1 and 6. Casey ripped everything apart and figured out what had gone wrong. Needless to say, after all the issues I had and people I've dealt with, I will always return to Casey and his team. You guys are absolutely amazing, and I respect and appreciate everything you guys have done for me.Services: Auto engine diagnostic, Auto engine tuning, Engine repair, Transmission repair, Auto maintenance

I called to about getting a few parts added to my car and was told they're only doing dyno tuning right now they're not working on cars or taking in new projects I thought that advertise me was you can work on anything I guess I was mistaken but as I can see I'm glad I learned fast before I spent money with your company I see why there is a 4.5 star rating on your company#lOOk@theratings# #weexpectbetterservice#getyouradvertismentright#needhelpMechaniccommunity#anyrealHighProformanceMechanics?

I brought my 2015 Mustang GT in for a set of Texas Speed and Performance long tube headers to be installed. Everything else on my car I have done myself, so I was kinda anxious about leaving my car with someone else to do the work. After reading numerous reviews, I decided to give this place a shot. I'm glad that I did. Casey did a great job and it saved me a lot of sweat and colorful language. He didn't screw around with price or time. He got the job done and charged a little less than the price we had discussed. He seems to be someone that loves his work and that's the kind of person you want working on your car.

I drove from Corpus Christi to Temple to get My AFM delete, TSP stage 2 cam and tune. This is a 260 mile drive and I am so glad I had such a trusted shop working on my new engine. Casey made us feel welcome and took the time to listen to what I wanted and explain our best options. Yes we have a performance shop in Corpus Christi, I let them install the headers that took four days, with no explanation of tune that had my truck idling at thirty miles an hour when they finished. They worked on their race cars and put customers on back burner, probably why they are part timers now. I will be taking my 2015 tahoe soon for same work. My truck has never run this good, Casey is the best hands down.Services: Engine repair, Air conditioning

Long review but worth the read. As a single mom who doesn't know much about cars, it can be a little daunting to find a shop you can trust to work on your kids truck. Especially when it comes to brakes. When we pulled up to the shop someone was walking out to greet us before we could even get out of the truck. Casey and his crew explained everything, fixed us up and got us back on the road in no time. Casey wasn't just concerned about getting paid and getting us out. He was more concerned about my daughters safety. This speaks volumes about the guy. This kind of genuine integrity reflects in his work and the way he does business. I will be referring all my family and friends to SWG. Thank you Casey and crew!

I recently installed a TSP cam and was antsy to get it tuned. Not only does Casey work exclusively with TSP, but because he does, a tune with a TSP part doesn t need all the extras that other Dyno shops include in their much higher prices. Anyhoo, I was in and out within 30 minutes and my car runs like a beast. Best $350 mod I ever spent.

Best shop ive been to. Brought my computer in for a tune, Casey was very professional and direct with his work. He did end up missing something on the tune but got it fixed with no hassle. Would definitely go again

If you are looking for a performance shop that goes the extra mile to make sure your vehicle is done right, look no further. These guys kept me informed throughout the process. I look forward to bringing car back in the future. The only place I trust to take my car. Thank you for such a great experience!

Casey and his team went above and beyond. I have had many encounters with "wanna be mechanics" & none of them compare to Casey! His work ethic and prices are amazing & affordable! You'd be wasting your money going anywhere else except Casey! He has earrned my business for life!

I had dropped my 05 Mustang GT off for a Turbocharger instalation that he quoted only $3000. I handed him the money upfront. it took him 6 months to "overnight" a part while letting my vehicle sit outside for over half a year with nothing ever being done to it. he kept requesting more money for the job to be done. and it ended up costing thousands more ontop of his original quote. Casey, the owner requested my car be removed from his property and I was given NO RECEIPT and NO WARRANTY or a build sheet. my car did not even START when it left his shop on a wrecker. My vehicle was brought to him in perfect condition and left unable to operate whatsoever. This place is not the performance shop you want. even after requesting a receipt multiple times, I have still received nothing and im left stranded with a car that does not run, out thousands in cash with no receipts.

Casey definitely knows his stuff took my cammed full bolt on 2017 Chevy Silverado High Country to him Friday to get it Tuned did a Great job on it! it was previously tuned by another tuner come to find out previous tuner DIDNT even have the correct tire size. Truck feels way stronger now more responsive and drivability way better. Thanks again Casey will be coming back to get my dads Silverado tune soon.

Piece of crap place to get your car fixed. I took mine in for a water pump he said he got stuff done on it that was all BS. And then i had to go there a month later with a police officer to get it out of his hands. Don't even go there, if anything, go to works eleven for import cars. Now there they have german mechanics Worth your money. Not an unprofessional mechanic that can't get stuff done. Regret my decision.

I was at the near McDonalads, unfortunately I faced some engine issue and the service staff there recommended SWG automotive. As he said, they re very professional and fair service cost. They sorted it out quickly.

As someone who knows next to nothing about cars, going into a shop is kind of scary. Luckily, these guys make everything easier. They always give me a fair price and even explain to me in simple terms what the issue is. I love them!

This shop is awesome. The Guy who runs the shop is very knowledgable and is always willing to give great advice on any engine builds even if you aren't his customer. Always willing to help out another automotive enthusiast.

Bad experienceHe's been in possession of 2 of my vehicles for almost 3yrs. One was a tub job for a wide tire fitment on a 1979 C-10. The other vehicles is my 1989 Chevy Caprice that I was modifying for a procharger fitment. He was in possession of my GTO but I have since moved that vehicle to another shop. I'd elaborate more on how long I've been waiting for him to complete my projects but I figured posting a conversation my inbox between him and myself would be more effective."I came out to the shop today as I'm sure you may have heard by now.You've had my Caprice since 2013. I bought a pro charger on the strength of you saying you can make it work and nothing materialized with that. So we agreed on rewiring the car and dropping the motor back in because we were abandoning power adders such as turbos and PC because I want my car back.You've had my truck since I bought it late 2013. I didn't ask for anything major other than modifying the bed and suspension to accommodate my new rims. That project has been at a standstill.My GTO has been with you since late 2014 as well and it looks like you haven't started on it either. If you have, I can't tell.I'm stranded outside of riding my bikes. I need a vehicle with 4 tires. You've had all of my cars and truck for long periods of time with no results. I've trusted you and promoted you at every turn. I've been straight with you when comes to business and I've never shorted you or bad mouthed you about how much time you've taken to fix my vehicles. I'm sorely disappointed. Is my money no good in your shop or something? I know you've had some personnel issues but that's not an excuse over over a 3yr period of time. Not when you've gone to races across the country and all of my vehicles are sitting there.I need both my blue car and truck back this month. I can't keep doing the bumming rides and riding my bike as my only options.Victor Vinziant3/3, 6:19amVictor VinziantI've been more than patient, lenient and considerate and all I've gotten out of this arrangement is partially assembled non-functional vehicles and 3yrs of no results. If you can't do the work or don't want to, then at least refer me to someone you trust and be honest about not having the manpower or desire to do the jobs."

SWG Automotive already in my good books. They had done a good job with my old truck. Fair pricing as well.
