I have a 2013 wrx that had a blown engine Adam was great to work with going over options of what to do to get this car back on the road. We ended up doing a built motor with full bolt ons and fp green turbo. All I can say is these guys really know there subarus. Joe absolutely killed the tune. The car ended up making 410whp 406tq on 21psi on pump gas!! I daily drive this car and have put 4900 miles on it since the build last month and have had no problems. Excellent shop to work with 10/10 if you have a subaru idk why you would go anywhere else!

I have a 08 Cobalt SS had them do turbo, clutch, and retune. Amazing guys to work with, super knowledgeable and are always in touch with you while the car is getting done. Had a problem with the clutch that I ordered and they were able to suggest a new/better one get it here & in the car quick. While the car was getting tuned they called to make sure I was good with the power that it made also provided a video of a pull on the dyno👍

Best service I’ve had! Very nice and honest people. Joe and Adam actually communicated with me during the tuning process made sure I was happy with the numbers and gave me advice on what can help! Very great guys and honest work! My wrx runs great!

These guys were awesome to work with. Just stopping by their shop it is very apparent that they love what they do. They are capable of tuning just about anything you could bring to them. Along with their wide array of knowledge, they were also great at communicating and ensuring that they had all the information they needed to properly tune my car. The staff here are also very down to earth people. I dont know a ton about tuning cars, but they were all very receptive to talking through the process with me and never had a condescending attitude about my questions. I highly recommend checking this shop out.

An overall amazing experience. I figured they were only a performance tuner and thats all they knew, but after talking with them about an overheating issue while towing with my f150, I quickly realized they know everything about cars and the difference tuning can make in every aspect of the vehicle. They were quick to get me in and listened to all of my needs. During the tuning process they made recommendations and again listened to my concerns and addressed them all. If professional, knowledgeable, and accessible is what youre after, then look no further.

Originally I brought my car over to a mechanic back in 2019. Today is 2021 NOV I had to pull my car out of there few weeks ago and take it elsewhere because it took ridiculously too long and an extreme nightmare and so glad I did because another shop found many things that needed to be corrected and with honesty and truth. Ok i thought Id give 2nd chance to this shop. Brought my toyota celica there for clutch,sway bar and suspension and do height adjustment. 3 weeks later finally gets it done and tells me after paying him the sway bar wasnt installed because I didnt have time and he said it wouldnt fit in the car with its end links anyway and which in my mind I 100% disagreed with that. Cars front suspension started rattling and popping bottoming out. So i decided not to go back there because I dont want to wait 20 weeks to just get it looked at and more excuses. So I went with these guys at turbo lab. Called them in the morningDescribed what I needed done they said bring it in got it there at noon they started on it and finished a 4 hour job by 4 that same day and car ran perfect. Front Sway bar and its whiteline links fit like a glove and more lowered and smoother ride and turbo lab said my suspensions where loose and not adjusted properly like it was taken out of the box and slapped on it and there you go. Everyone becareful with your cars dont just take it to anyone do your research there are some mechanics out there you dont want to take your car too These guys at turbo lag are the best and I feel safe paying them high dollar work that they do and they are up front with you and on point with precision delivery of service at the end. These guys are worth the money

Overall experience was great, there was a little mix up when calling in to get my exhaust installed and car tuned. But the guys here were able to put in the extra time to get exactly what i wanted done and the outcome was great. Definitely will recommend anyone looking for a tune and or exhaust work to come here.

Great experience today at Turbo Lab! Did a baseline on my 92 Mustang 5.0. We had an appointment and they got us right in. The staff were very polite and professional, even asked how I wanted the hood closed on the car when we were done as opposed to just slamming it down like most people would have done. Great guys and a fun time for me and my son. Well be back after some mods! Highly recommend Turbo Lab!

We had an amazing experience at Turbo Labs! I brought my husband’s WRX in for a new clutch and with the fantastic help and guidance from Adam, I was able to have them add some fun additions- which was a complete surprise for my husband! When we picked up the car my husband was blown away with the surprise! This was the best gift ever! My hubby loves the changes and I know we’ll definitely be back! Turbo Labs was so professional, friendly, fast, and did an amazing job at a more than fair price. The recommendations were perfect for us and they made it so easy for me to completely surprise my husband and make his day!

Definitely be bringing my car back to these guys! Joe & Adam go above and beyond. They even stayed 2 hrs after the shop closed trying to diagnose the puzzle of aftermarket parts i had on my wrx. Even if they had dealership high prices (which they dont) i would still pay them that👍my car runs better than it ever has after the consistent powerful tune they put on it.

Review №14

Brought my civic in for what i thought was just a head gasket issue, these guys actually came to find that it was my block that was cracked. they kept me updated the whole time they had the car in the shop, the price for the work was high at first but these guys were so quick to take care of me and bring it down to a price that was fair for the both of us. the last local tuning shop i went to had no knowledge, straight bent me over and charged me 4-5 hours labor just to take the intake manifold off. just talking to these guys at turbolab i already know they are way different, what had me in shock was when i brought some of the bolts to joe and that dude just started naming where they go without me telling him 😂 joe and adam are definitely very knowledgeable in the field, have the experience and were quick to diagnose the issue, and were straight with me the whole time, honest mechanics like these guys are hard to come by nowadays. will definitely have to come back for that dyno tune once i get some more dough and its in working order.

Great service, great tune 👍They fixed my car up which had more issues than even I knew. Fixed a vacuum leak and repaired the boost control. Fixed a major ecu issue as well as putting on a new turbocharger and turbo with a powerful tune. Great and easy crew to talk to and work with. Thank you.

I showed up late, and they said, “No problem!” Then took my car back, offered free drinks and snacks while I waited for them to tune my car. I have had my car about a week now with 0 problems. I will without a doubt recommend them to any looking for a tune, and I will be going back myself! Plus they are great staff, and talked to me the entire time, 100% genuine.

Turbo Lab was Awesome. Joe and Adam were both great to work with. I brought in my 240sx that was not idling properly and a few other things that had been problems for a number of years. The car had previously been looked at by a handful of other mechanics that could not figure out the problem. Not only did Joe and Adam fix the problem but they were so great to work with. Joe paid special attention to detail while tuning the car to ensure the drivability was to perfection. Their prices are more than fair and they dont skimp on the service. I am so ecstatic with the outcome and would only take my car back to Turbo Lab.

Review №26

These guys are fantastic! A few months back I came to them to have the back half of my exhaust redone and some new blast pipes welded on. The quality of the welds are great! My car is VERY low to the ground so they went out of their way to tuck the new piping up as high as possible, and they informed me that they could fabricate a custom skid plate to protect my engine/transmission. I said yes, and I now have a 1/4” steel skid plate that’s custom made for my car! They made it into two pieces to allow for access to either side for maintenance/repairs, and shaped it to allow for as much clearance as possible. Now when I see sparks flying out behind me I know that it’s not my oil pan or exhaust! Those who drive lowered cars know anxiety that comes with scraping and banging as you drive, and I can tell you that I am so confident driving my slammed car around because of Turbo Lab! I absolutely will be coming back for any work I need done!

Unless your car is 100% and not a project car, DONT bring it here! If there is any sort of engine code they will waste your whole day. My first time in I was excited and dropped car off at 9am, they called me at 5:15pm to tell me they wouldnt put it on the dyno because of a knock sensor code. Understandable but I literally just had it replaced, it had to be a stored code. Well just to be safe I had whole engine bay wiring harness replaced and came back in 3 weeks later. Again called set appointment to bring it in 9am no other questions asked on phone. Car was still throwing a couple codes but nothing i thought would prevent from getting tuned again. This time I wasnt going to wait all day to get told they wouldnt tune it. So I was up front about 4 codes it was throwing. Well the code this time they had a problem with was an 02 heater code...all my AFRs and actual 02 sensors work just fine. Because it was a primary code they still refused to tune it. So In my case a whole month of run around and still waiting for refund to hit my account, when refund was issued last Wednesday.

Very professional, wonderful customer service. Going in for a dyno tune is an exciting day for the customer. They vibe with the energy. Guys are awesome. E85 and 91 tunes on my stock turbo STI. 333whp and 440 twerks. Awesome numbers I will be back once I am ready for an upgrade. I recommended turbo lab to all of my subie friends. More business is coming Turbo Labs way for sure. Thank you!!

Review №33

There are not many shops, if any, in the intermountain area that can do what these guys offer. Two Dynos for baseline and performance tuning . Complete custom fab work for just about any performance mod you can think of for just about any car, race car or daily driver. They know what they are doing having built and driven their own race cars. I used them to tune my 370z after installing a new exhaust, CAI and Coilovers. I highly recommend them if you if you are serious about upgrading or moding your ride. Joe and Adam along with some very experienced gearheads working in the shop will take care of you. Great experience, great people here. No, I dont work for them nor am I a vendor. Im just a car guy that had a better than expected time being around good folks with some mad skillz.

If you need your car tuned go to Turbo Lab and talk to Joe. He is extremely knowledgeable and professional and knows what hes doing. He will keep you updated as the process goes and make you feel like at home same as with the rest of the staff. He will also answer all of your questions and concerns and give you his input from his professional experience. Got my car tuned and dialed in and got pretty awesome results! Definitely wasnt expecting those type of Dyno numbers, but thanks to Joe now my car is a whole new animal and makes me feel much more better about it. And the best part about it theyll treat you like family. Invest your money here and youll love the outcome I promise. Thank you again Joe for tunning my car is was a blast working with you and I am looking forward to working with you further in the future. Thanks to Adam and rest of the staff as well for providing a pleasant waiting room experience.Thank you!

Joe, is great to work with all the staff is very professional and efficient & knowledgeable. I would Recommend Turbo Lab to anyone who wants professionals to work on their car. Now my 2005 Subaru Legacy GT puts a smile on my face, Joe, did magic work with the tune. The cost was worth it trust me it is better then going to the dentist no pain and the end results are priceless. Forget any other tune shop in Utah this is the place trust me on this I hope this saves someone time and money.

These guys have been fantastic. I blew my engine on the way to work and my normal repair shop told it me it was more than they could work on. My tow truck driver recommended Turbo Lab and they were fantastic. Not only were they willing to look at my car despite how bad it sounded, but they were also able to pinpoint the problem and explain things simply without trying to force an expensive repair or engine swap on me.The guys at Turbo Lab were exemplary, they have been completely honest and kind in what could have been an extremely stressful situation. Beyond grateful for how helpful they have been, will definitely be going back for any upgrades or repairs in the future.

Review №54

I brought my RB20det swapped 240sx in during December of 2018 for some work. During the time that Joe had my car, he was very vague in describing what my car needed. Trusting him, I gave my OK for him to do what was necessary to get the car running safely and reliably. Upon finally receiving the invoice right after I got my car back, I was very surprised to see that there was no list of parts and labor for the work done. After months of persistently asking for an itemized invoice, I finally received one that showed names of alleged genuine parts and the labor for what was supposedly a safe and reliable tune.BUYER BEWARE - I WAS TOLD I WAS GETTING GENUINE PARTS, COME TO FIND OUT THEY INSTALLED A COUNTERFEIT PART IN MY CAR WITHOUT MY KNOWLEDGE. (you can see the photo on the website photos). You can enter the serial number (SN0391178) in TiALs website for confirmation that this was indeed, a fake part. I also found out that one of my fuel lines was kinked and Turbolabs had tuned around the issue without doing a proper check to make sure the car was safe to tune. Upon calling them to see if they could resolve the faulty tune for one that was safe to use, I was told that they would not re-tune the car. This shop uses very shady business practices without the customers knowledge.

Joe is a first class engine tech and professional tune master! He listened ardently to my needs and crafted a perfect solution for what I was looking for on my Subaru. We gained over 50 Hp without breaking the bank or going crazy on the mods. My car is faster, and I couldn’t give a better recommendation. Honestly, I couldn’t ask for a better experience. He’s done my exhaust, up and down pipes, pro tune and air intake.

This was the first time my car has been tuned and ran on the dyno. Previously I had been told so much wrong information on what my car needed in order for it to run smoothly. Needless to say majority of it was false. Joe, educated me on how things work and where things need to be for the best performance. They did an amazing job, the power levels were much higher than expected. The car was done on time and it runs FANTASTIC!!!! Thanks again Joe I will be referring my friends to you!

Joe is really knowledgeable about all moving vehicles, but especially my Acura, my baby.

Joe Sims has one of the largest.... knowledge bases of any mechanic i know regarding fabrication and repair. From desert racing pre-runners to track cars there are few mechanics/racers that have a more girthy.... knowledge and skill base. Joe converted a 2003 M3 coupe into a race ready track car recently for me that i have been very happy with. Joe does exceptionally high value work that wont too deeply penetrate your wallet. I highly suggest giving Turbo Labs a chance to help you problem solve and bid your next project.

Joe, Justin and Jesse are top notch. Took my 68 Camaro in for extensive upgrades, suspension, EFI conversion, power steering, new radiator as well as a complete Vintage Air system. They put up with my visits every day to check on progress. As with any in depth upgrades, there are always snags. But customer service isnt proven when everything goes right, its proven when unexpected things arise during a project.Everything was handled great, will continue to take my car there, and if you are trying to decide if you should give them a shot, do it.

Review №76

Joe did in 2 weeks what another shop couldnt figure out in over a year. I brought Joe 2 crates of engine parts and 2 engine blocks stripped down to the bare bolts from another shop that had my Honda S2000 for over a year. I finally got fed up with this other shop and picked up my car, all my parts, and asked Joe if he could somehow make sense out of the pile of random parts and put together a working engine. Joe not only got my car running in under 2 weeks, but it runs AMAZING! Super fast, super quiet, and super smooth. He brought me in several times to show me what he was working on and gave me the opportunity to choose several different repair options that were all good but with varying degrees of cost. I have never felt more confident leaving a car with somebody than with Joe at Turbo Labs. He over-delivered on quality and time frame. He knows his stuff and stands behind his work. I have since brought him another car that needed head gaskets and he got the car back to me lightning fast. Hes a nice guy. He listens to your concerns. Hes a pro.

Hi I have an oddball project. A 1992 Toyota pickup with a Tacoma 2.7L motor swap and supercharged. i have talked to multiple shops about tuning my SDS standalone. Only one other shop was even willing to try to tune it. Their customer service was so bad I didnt want to ever go back after i fixed what I needed to to be ready for tuning. When i first contacted Turbo Lab they didnt bat an eye at tuning my truck, so I gave them a try. I am very glad i did. It is hard to describe since I didnt think my truck ran badly but it is better in every way. 65 more horsepower, better fuel economy, starts better, and just runs better. Joe the tuner is very knowledgeable. He told me about a couple things that need to be installed differently to be better. Also told me about a couple ways i could squeeze some more power out of my build. Bottom line when asked i will be suggesting Turbo Lab to anyone who wants some more performance out of their ride. Thank you for the awesome work and customer service.

I own a 94 Mazda Rx7 with an LS, which is frowned upon by JDM purists. I half expect to get negative remarks when someone discovers the setup. Turbo Lab was great and did no such thing.Another commentor said to avoid bringing your LS to Turbo Lab because they dont know what theyre doing. I cant speak for him, but my experience was completely different. Both times I brought my car in, it made big gains with a much more usable power band. I think theyre fantastic. Quick to schedule with same day turnaround. Whats not to like? Ill be back!

Joe and his crew at TurboLab have helped me with 3 of my cars, and each time I found them experienced, very helpful and quite resourceful. Joe tells you what your options are, discusses prices and then tells you his opinion on what to do.My 1988 Mazda 323 GTX had the turbo changed out, my wife’s 2004 Mazdaspeed Miata got the turbo rebuilt along with a new intercooler, and my rare 1997 supercharged manual transmission V6 Camry got rebuilt 3 times over the 210,000 miles I drove it. What fun cars these are, and TurboLab kept me running. When I rolled the Camry soon after the 3rd rebuild, they helped me extract the supercharger so I could sell it to some other lucky Camry booster.All my interactions with this place have been upright, straight-shooting and unique in all of Utah County, and perhaps, all of Utah. A few times I was in the waiting room I overheard customers who came from out of state to get Joe to upgrade their rides, citing word-of-mouth recommendation.The cost was reasonable, the work was done as fast as parts were available or fabricated, and their work worked! I recommend them. My only regret was that I didn’t have them put my Camry on their Dyno. ;)

I had taken my 2003 Toyota Tacoma to multiple different mechanics before finally finding Turbo Lab! They exceeding my expectations and Joe the owner stands behind his work. They have done a lot of work for me but most recently they found and fixed an oil leak that every other mechanic told me would be anywhere from $600 to $2000 to fix. Joe got in and took his time to actually pin point the problem and not only fixed the leak, but also fixed some other minor issues for less than $200! The honesty and passion for the customer to be happy will keep me coming back to the Turbo Lab team!

I can not express how helpful these guys are. They are so easy to work with and do great work. They had my Subaru running better then it ever has and joe really knows his stuff.

I took a trip to this shop to get my FR-S Tuned, but unfortunately my cars ECU wasnt compatible w their tuning software. They offered to dyno the car anyway to see how its running and they even gave me information on how to improve it. Super helpful, super informative, super patient. I appreciate the time they gave me! Absolutely, recommend giving them a shot!

I was having turbo issues on a tuned up diesel. Joe helped me get a new high performance Garrett turbo for my truck and now it runs awesome. Price was good and the service and expertise was even better. His advise for the best turbo and tuning was priceless.Brandon

Very nice dudes, I took my car in today and Adam was super helpful. I had a check engine light come on and it turned out all I needed was a bolt for my intake. He put it on free of charge, fixed the issue and sent me on my way. Very happy with the shop!

I took my mk4 Supra in to Joe for some troubleshooting and tuning. Ive been having a terrible boost issue and several local shops could not find it. Joe took my car in and had the issue spotted before lunchtime. It ended up being a bad diaphram inside my wastegate. We fixed it up with parts he had in stock, hit the rollers, and Joe was able to squeeze out 631whp/512TQ out of my 2j. Best decision Ive made aside from buying my car was taking it to Joe over at Turbolab! Lifetime customer here.

Excellent! VERY fair price, quick service, clean shop, kind staff and personable service. After dyno’ing my mustang, they could have easily talked me into tuning or extra mods, but he was honest and said it was good as it sat. Very abnormal in the automotive industry to not push a sale tactic. Would highly recommend

Talked down to to me and my friends when we came in to purchase a fitting. Literally had to argue that we will not pay full price for a used fitting we had to find in their shop.Best part, they deleted our original review. Now i get why they are the laughing stock in utah.

Helped me get a NASA qualification dyno on very short notice - they were pretty busy but fit me in as a courtesy. Thank you guys! Appreciate your work!

3 stars for skill and workmanship and 1 Star for professionalism. After listening to the owner rant about his welding equipment then having him insult me for buying a crappy eBay exhaust system I wouldn’t recommend this shop to anyone. I do like how my exhaust tips were trimmed but I could have done a cleaner cut with a 10th grade metal shop level of experience. The high temp paint wasn’t cured properly and started to come off not long after I got my car back.

Was looking at buying a modified used car, took it to turbo labs for a pre-purchase inspection and was super impressed. They not only showed me everything that needed to be done on the car in person, but they were able to give me a complete rundown of everything not stock on the car, the quality of the workmanship on the mods as well as check the tune to see if it was correct. I wont go anywhere else after having such a great experience with them and their direct and honest work.

Joe and his team did an amazing job on our daughters crew racing shell. The hull and nose were badly damaged and we needed to have it repaired quickly. They finished it in 2 days and it looks brand new...and fast! They do meticulous work, theyre friendly and theyre honest. What more could you ask for?

Fast, good work! And cheap! Got my starter changed for pretty cheap while I was at work. Only took a couple hours, and an employee even gave me a ride to work! So far, the only place I have been for repairs on my car

Extremely impressed with Turbo Lab! Took a Lamborghini Gallardo with electrical issues in and they went above and beyond to diagnose the problem. No other shop would even look at it. Turbo lab had all the expertise and tools to diagnose. Affordable and honest. They work on normal cars to exotics. Great prices and honest mechanics. I would recommend them to anyone with any type of car that needs repaired. Thanks Joe.
