I have trusted Neema and the guys at HG for both servicing and performance upgrades on my Audi RS3. All I can say is that the work is top notch and the customer service is excellent. I always look forward to stopping by this shop because there are usually a few exotics and other high end luxury cars to check out. The fact that customers trust their high priced vehicles with HG shows that this shop is legit, and my experiences so far confirm that. Don't hesitate to give this place a call and see what they can do for your ride. Neema is kind and professional and will give you the run-down with no nonsense. read more

I've been coming here for aftermarket performance upgrades for my BMW and they do a fantastic job every single time I've taken my car here. They treat my vehicle like their own and the whole team treats me like family. Experience and enthusiasm working on high performance vehicles is their forte, I wouldn't go anywhere else. read more

So glad these guys are in San Marcos now. Had tires mounted here after having issues with other shops. No damage to wheels at HG . Also used HG for a couple alignments with very good results. You pay a little more but worth knowing your car is in good hands and will not come back abused, dirty, or dented/scratched. Guys there are are very friendly and easy to work with as well. Good work. read more

Madison & Omar were very friendly and easy to communicate with. Will definitely being going back eventually

Everyone here has been amazing. Had a bunch of work done on my S3 and I couldn't be happier with the quality of work, communication and no surprises. I paid what I was quoted and was even reimbursed for my Uber rides to and from the shop. I'll be back soon! I dropped by with my wife's car and my truck on zero notice a couple weeks back and Oscar and the team took me right in and addressed a couple issues I had going on right there on the spot. Oscar and his crew are amazing and I highly recommend them to everyone! Thanks guys!!! read more

Neema & Alain fully understand the dynamics of high performance vehicles by virtue of their own personal track day experiences. Their performance set-ups have increased my car's stability while helping to lower my own personal track times. I appreciate the fact that they spend hours of their time researching component options for European Sports Coupes as well as American Muscle Cars owners. In addition, they will not hesitate to back away from a popular performance brand if they have found a better of more cost-efficient option. Finally, HG Performance provides fair and accurate estimates. I have never experienced "sticker shock" nor felt as though the shop pushed unnecessary upgrades onto my vehicle. read more

Great customer service and reasonable price. They did an excellent job on my 2015 BMW 335i. Totally Satisfied. Thanks To Nima and HG Performance. read more

HG performance is the most pristine and highly regarded automotive repair and modification shop in all of Southern California. I have gone to these guys for all my sports cars modifications and repairs and the level of care that they provide to my vehicles is second to NONE. Alain, Dylan, and David are some of the most thorough technicians in the industry, and whether it be an Infiniti G35 or a Mclaren 675LT they treat every vehicle as if it were their own! read more

Dieter, and his team of Omar and Alain and all the other great techs I can't name are some of the best techs in all of California for your sports cars or kit car or even your classic car! I've taken my 2003 E46 M3 to be worked on here, may that be for a dyno or a wheel mount install etc...I've always left happy and without a second guess as to their work. They sometimes compete and race on the weekends, and they win...a lot. These guys aren't just a mod and repair shop, they're a race proven facility! The front desk is always helpful and quick to answer most questions. read more

HG Performance - Spoiler Installation - Auto Customization Near Me - San Marcos, California

First let me say that I'm incredibly picky when it comes to who is going to touch my car. I toured a few places in San Diego (won't mention them by name) and HG was the only one that passed. I have a brand new 2015 GTR which I had converted to flex fuel and a complete exhaust installed with a tune to finish. They also out on some diffuser fins, after market flappy paddle shift levers, and some other things. Job well done. I expect my parts to not be lying around on the ground, mechanics to wear gloves and change them when touching interior parts of my car, and for the vehicle to come back looking as good if not better than when I left. Dieter and his boys take care of you with the white glove service. Some of you may not care about that but you'll get it as a bonus when you take you car to be serviced or modified. My GTR now has 690HP and is a Ferrari killer. I won't take my cars anywhere else. My wife's E63 AMG is next on the list and I refer everyone I know to them. MODING YOUR CAR IS ABOUT TRUSTING YOUR TUNER! Dieter will do it right and stand by his shop's work. Bravo my friend - bravo... read more

I went and toured HG Motorsports with a friend who had work done there before. Daniel took me on a shop tour. I was very impressed right away. So I decided to let them upgrade my 14 GT-R to the HG 700 hp package. The car now drives and sounds amazing. This is how Nissan should have sold the car from the factory! My experience is that Daniel and John are very knowledgeable and will go the extra mile to take care of you. I dropped off the car and picked it up a few days later a completely different beast, exactly like I wanted it. I didn't have to do anything, just show up and drive it. I must have asked a million questions and both were extremely patient with me and explained everything in detail. John, the tech working on my car, is a former GT-R Tech. To become a GT-R tech, first you have to become a Nissan Master tech, hold all 8 ASE certs, and then go through the GT-R certification process. This is a major feat. HG has 1 more GT-R tech than most Nissan dealerships in the area. No wonder they have a constant stream of GT-Rs there. I was on travel while they worked on my car, and I needed to pick up a part from nissan, so John went and picked up the part from Nissan for me. That is service! I also like the fact that they have an AWD dyno and can custom tune the car. I was a bit weary of e-tuning, and having the ability to custom tune removed that fear completely. When you want top notch quality, HG will NOT disappoint. read more

I was looking to buy an ESS tune for my 2010 M3, and came across HG Motorsports online. I was surprised to see that they were authorized dealers to so many BIG names in the industry such as HRE, Dinan, Brembo, Adv.1, and ESS just to name a few. So I called them up and spoke to Chris who was very knowledgable in tuning and got me a price which was much less than anywhere else I looked. After I drove over and they installed the tune for me, the car ran great! I was really impressed with the product, but more so with their customer service. At that time my car was filthy, and Chris wouldn't let me drive off without giving my car a good handwash (for free!). Also, while my car was being tuned, I had a parking sticker stuck between my dashboard and windshield in a very tight spot. Dieter spent a good 15 minutes trying to get it out for me and wouldn't give up. This might seem insignificant, but the customer service at this place goes beyond what is normal. Oh and did I mention they did the installation (which takes a few hours) for free? If you have a car you want to modify and leave in trustworthy hands, this is the place! read more

I have used HG performance several times and these guys are plain awesome. Excellent customer service! Omar and his team managed to get me the piece I was looking for (Exhaust Cut out + Wireless remote control) for the best price available!! As soon as the pieces arrived, they communicated with me on the order status and had the pieces delivered to me. Highly recommended for tune-up, customization, even simple check up or repairs, you cannot go wrong with them! read more

Finally a performance shop and tuner that can do almost anything you can dream of!!! My dream was a car that was stupid fast but also quiet. Normally the 2 do not go hand in hand. So I have had the stupid fast part covered but it was also stupid loud and if you stood behind the car for long the exhaust fumes would give you lung cancer in a few min. Air quality coming out of the back of the car and if I had the windows down in the car the pollution was similar to China. My wife hated riding in the car because of the exhaust fumes and it also was nearly impossible to talk on the phone inside the car because it was soooo loud. Other shops had told me I had an impossible dream and they did not want to try and solve my problem but then I met Dieter. Dieter said no problem I will make if quieter and FASTER. I thought to myself, no way is he going to make it faster and quieter. I was not even asking for faster just same as it was but quieter. Thinking this was some kind of sales pitch I made him put that in writing with a guarantee. So HGMS set out to build a 100% custom turbo back exhaust. After about 2 weeks I go to pick up my car and what do you know it is 14% faster and quiet enough to talk on the phone inside the car and now it is running with not just 1 cat but 2, so the air coming out of the car is just as clean as the air going in. Who says you cannot go "green" and go fast :) William Knose did the tuning there and the car now pulls like a beast. Not only does the dyno show the improved power it also shows the car pulling harder over a larger rpm range. William Knose is about as good as they get when it comes to tuning. I have also had them work on an M3 and Ferrari 360. Just a first class team of people that can do almost anything. read more

Here is a copy of two emails I sent to HG Motorsports: "Hello Daniel and Dieter I want to take a moment to extend my thanks for all the work everyone did on my car. I took her for a brief drive tonight and it's a different car. Please tell everyone that i especially appreciated the real time updates, flexibility, expertise, transparency, and professionalism. The customer experience was excellent. Although it's not an exotic car, I felt like she was treated like one. I'll definitely come back for my next project on the Shelby" "Hello all, I just wanted to make a special mention of Alain's work, communication and extra effort on my GT500. He and others stayed late on Friday to ensure the car was truly ready for pick up. His communication and explanation of everything was excellent. From paint marking what he tightened to sending me pictures and videos of issues he discovered, it was greatly appreciated and refreshing. Even though he may not be directly client facing please know I for one found his level of professionalism above board. Thanks again to everyone on the team who helped me out." In addition to the above emails, my main point of contact, Daniel Goodman, is excellent to work with. While multi tasking, he treated my projects with a sense of urgency and communicated often. I felt like my car was at the top of the priority list and was receiving real time updates via email and phone from Daniel himself. This type of commitment to customer service is of utmost value to me and if you seek the same, stop by HG Motorsports and see Daniel Goodman. read more

Such an awesome shop with an even better team! Knowledgeable and take pride in what they do...dealers beware as you may see less and less GTR's coming your way read more

I wanted to go in to see what shape my car was in after I just bought it in good shape used. After they looked at it they brought me in the garage and told me my camber arms were bad which was true then they told me all my suspension went out. They also showed me some oil under the engine on some parts and made it sound like a big deal they charged me for looking underneath the car and looking at the engine when then didn't take anything apart I was just looking to get my car in working condition and they hit me with a $4500 price quote for everything. I ended up finding a good mechanic that said my car is a good shape and I didn't need anything done to the engine or suspension read more

I was referred to HG by a friend of mine to get some extensive maintenance done on my BMW M3. I was working with Neema and he was more than happy to provide me with quotes to get the work done, also he is super knowledgeable on these tier of vehicles.

Bill, Nima and team did an OUTSTANDING job installing my borla ATAK system and x-pipe on my 2016 Corvette. They have been extremely professional and have educated me throughout the process. Their communication is on point and their willingness to work around your availability is simply the best. The quality of the installation was hands down amazing. I am already planning on going back to them to see what I should do next. They've always been very honest about how long a job will take and have never pressured me in to doing something that would just make them more money. They're extremely honest, reliable, trustworthy, and above all very knowledgeable about cars. I strongly recommend HG Performance. read more

I picked up my 2015 Z/28 and started taking it to the track. I soon realized that it needed to be modified to better suit track driving. I took it to HG and couldn't have been more impressed or happier with experience. They installed slicks, a 4 point roll bar, race seats and belts, complete race fluids and track set up. All the guys were friendly and super professional. I really couldn't have been more impressed with my experience there. I did a few days at Laguna the following weekend and the car performed flawlessly!. I was confident that the car would work well and protect me if needed...Now I need to up my driving skills! I highly recommend HG Motorsports to anyone looking to improve the look, feel, or performance of their vehicle. read more

What would I do without HG performance?! I recently moved to San Diego and in the last 7 months they have helped me tremendously. I used to only trust taking my car to the Mercedes dealership but this is the first place I'd take my car now. (Worth the 45 min drive for me) Huge thank you to the owner, Omar, for all your help! Will be back! read more

I had an absolutely horrible experience at HG Motorsports. After removing the engine of my car, they decided that they were not interested in putting the replacement engine (which I procured) into the car. They basically abandoned the job and told me to pick up my engine-less car, the two engines and have it hauled to another shop. On top of this, they charged me $2,000 to put me in this predicament!! I will never, ever, never set foot, or spend another dime at this place. The longer version: The engine in my AMG E63 blew up, probably as a result of the crap headbolts AMG used. I brought the car to HG for a diagnosis. They found a broken piston, cracked rod etc. and recommended that I either spend $20K on a brand new engine, or find a used one as a replacement. They recommended a source for a used replacement engine, but after reading the reviews of this outfit, I decided to source it elsewhere. I found a replacement engine and had it shipped to HG. Once it arrived, it was not an E63 engine, but rather from an SL63, which necessitates switching over the oil pan and front cover. Now, HG tells me that to switch over the front cover, they need to pull the heads (which the other shop did not have to do...) and that they are not going to finish this project. They extorted $2K from me to release the car so that I could bring it to a competent shop to have this project finished. In the end I was able to locate a wonderful and very competent shop in Escondido who finished everything up in a little over a week and I'm now driving the car, in spite of HG Motorsport's incompetence and disastrous customer service. Steer clear of this place! read more

So, it was my first time here at HG Motorsports and it won't be my last either. This place is amazing! Very big place, yet, very clean and organized! Everyone were friendly, experienced, and knowledgeable! Just imagine it, they are all in one area; HG Motorsports. I was there to just asked information and guidance how I can achieved more power and improve my car on the track. (since they had the same car in the past) Well, Neema and the big boss went above and beyond. They visually inspected my car and see what kind of weird things I did with it. They really showed interest and were very helpful; gave many feedbacks, and pointers! Add the end, they offered to put their products on my car to see if it makes a different or improvement. They were trying to find the solutions to improve the performance of my car and not trying to sell or push me on their products. However, I ended buying their products because of all the informations they have given me. I trust within their knowledged and experienced that my car would do better. Also, who can refuse a really good deal? read more
