Default Wicked Innovation (now Wicked Performance Group) review thread

Now that Matt and Tom are officially vendors on NASIOC, it is time for them to get all the credit they deserve.

Matt's stage 2 tune on my car makes the Cobb stage 2 seem stock. I sat with him through the whole tuning process, and he was more than willing to answer any and all of my questions (and I usually have a lot). He's also helped me countless times with questions about my car and friend's cars since then.

Soon I will be installing my FP Green, and can't wait to see what Matt does with my new setup.

I will also be having Tom install my LW flywheel and clutch, and make me a set of Koni inserts. This guy does some amazing installs. And if you ever need anything welded, Tom will make it look like a work of art.

And if you want to have a happy tuner, bring a case of Mountain Dew. Stuff is like crack for Matt

They definitely have very fair pricing. I've had a motor rebuild, clutch install, and 20g set up put in by them. Great work

I had them install a stock location externally gated GT3076R turbo, 3" intake, and 8mm phenolic spacers in the bug-eye. Excellent quality install and great support.
I hear they're also going to incorporate a paint and bodywork cell soon : )

Got my car tuned by Matt. Cant say enough for how good the car pulls. Plus, these guys are super knowledgeable, honest, and passionate about the work they do. Going with a VF39 and supporting mods soon, and I will be going back to WI.

Just to update Ian's post, as of today we will now be located at Unit #14. I'm sure some of you have seen the new shop on Facebook already, we'll have more pictures as we finish the construction in here. Also, our phone is off for some of the day today while service is transferred to the new place (but the number is the same).

Thanks for all the good words guys, no more silly locked posts :P

yea i thought about mentioning that. i believe they are calling it "Wicked Bodywork" or something to that effect lol

haven't met Jimmy in person yet, i don't think, but i picked his car out in 2 seconds when i went to a meet a while ago. wish i could've waited to have my car painted, would have definitely taken it to him.

Always have had great service from Matt and Tom! Be it the motor builds, the suspension work, the chassis repair, tuning, tweaking, etc, etc, etc; they have done a terrific job.

I look forward to having them install the next part that comes my way.

Hopefully it's a set of 50mm RS&SP or DMS....

They are now vendors? That breaks the first rule of fight club.

Seriously, these guys are amazing and honest. Wouldn't/don't trust anyone else with my car. M@ turns out beasts, and Tom has save me a good chunk in labor by being quick. These guys are THE shop in New England.

Im working on a post that will detail all the upcoming renovations and services we will be providing. Wicked Innovation's 'Wicked BodyWorks' subdivision will be focusing on things like headlight blackouts, trunklid shaving, exterior accessory paintmatching among other things, as well as some trick custom fab parts. Jimmy, Tom, and I are very excited to bring so many services to the table and cant wait to show off our new expanded facilities.

This is amazing.

I've only had good experiences with Matt and the rest of the guys down at WI. My car's tuned by him and it runs amazing, probably been re tuned at least 3 times with different setups and he's always been able to work with it.

+12345 and glad they can post freely on here hahaha

Cool

A couple years back i bought a set of gold rotas off of M@ for my LGT, good transaction, great guy.
Seems like a bit of a drive but i think i might bring my car in for the 6 speed swap for my 02 wrx as soon as I collect all of the parts. I'm sick of doing it myself and its cold out lol.

The very same, I need to put some new rubber on them this winter while i have them off. I'm thinking we are going to have to talk about the swap sooner rather than later. I have babied my current one but i figure i can DD the legacy while its worked on.

My cousin needs his saabaru tuned as well so I'm thinking you can handle that as well
