I just wanted to hear if anyone has good/bad experiences with one or both shops.....who has better pricing -service-advice-over all customer satisfaction?

Agile Auto? I think they are the best, they know their stuff and Hill is a stand up guy. Him and his wife are great and super informative about everything.

A friend of mine was sponsored by Agile while he did autocross. He had nothing but good things to say about them. I have never been to either shop but I’m just basing my opinion off of someone I could trust when it came to tuning a cars suspension.

I have multiply friends who strongly suggest IAG. They have the most top of the line stuff and do everything in house. I'm hoping to go down there soon to get a new alignment since mine is all messed up.

Nobody is ever going to say something bad about their sponsor.

Philly03wagon · 04-04-2012, 12:36 PM

ok, please disregard my statement as I have no clue about either LOL

Thinking about giving agile a try....not 100% sure yet though

AutobahnRacer · 04-12-2012, 07:54 PM

Agile is fantastic. Took my none Subaru and my friends dad and him both have Subarus and go there. Hill is a fantastic mechanic and tuner with great results. We bombarded Hill with questions that we had and he was able to answer them in terms that the simplest car guy can understand and that are correct. Very friendly service. My choice, Agile

If you don't mind me asking, what type of work did you guys have done to your cars?

AutobahnRacer · 04-13-2012, 10:25 AM

Maintenance (bushing replacements, mounts etc..), performance upgrades (clutch, short-shifter etc..) and dyno tunes which has yielded great results.

mcperson2k · 04-13-2012, 10:46 AM

Were going tomorrow!

Brianb351 · 04-16-2012, 07:30 PM

Had great experiences w both, though i've only bought parts from IAG. My motor was built at Agile and i couldnt be more satisfied. Been down to the shop for everything from a catch can to a forged motor build and subsequent tune. I have never anything negative happen as a result of going to Agile.

Stigator · 04-19-2012, 11:41 AM

I set up an appointment with Agile on the 24th

AutobahnRacer · 04-23-2012, 12:06 PM

Let me know how it goes. Hill is a great guy, you will be very satisfied.

Stigator · 04-24-2012, 11:43 PM

They were very friendly and had tons off nice cars everywhere.....The part that sucks is the bad news they gave me.....I need a clutch and need to have the trans tore down. I knew I needed a clutch but I really don't wanna have my trans rebuilt

AutobahnRacer · 04-26-2012, 06:23 PM

Obviosuly not telling you what to do but Hill knows his stuff. If something is not worth doing, he won't tell you to do it just to get your money. He's got more business than he knows what to do with hence why he rarely has dyno days. He is always swamped, but I am glad you had a great expierience while you were there.

Stigator · 04-29-2012, 08:22 PM

I think I'm going to get estimates from andrewtech and rallispec for the trans rebuild. I'm sure this project is gonna hurt my pockets either way...

Stigator · 05-10-2012, 12:22 AM

I contacted Andrewtech & Rallispec by email to get estimates on the trans rebuild...Sam at Andrewtech emailed me back within 2-3 days, I never heard back from Rallispec so I tried calling . The line was busy so I left a message with my name number and what I needed done. Over a week later still no response from Rallispec.... So I set up my appointment with Andrewtech on the 31st (they were booked out a month) I guess now I just have to sit back and wait

**Ender81** · 05-16-2012, 11:41 AM

I had my trans built by Andrewtech and was very pleased with the results so you should be fine.
