I am a PITA client and a perfectionist. I over research everything, overbuild everything, over question everything, hear every squeak and noise and I never do what everyone else does so it is almost always custom. That being said the team at Excelerate has been great to me. They answer my questions, give me feedback and suggestions and roll with my whacky ideas. They are currently helping me build out two of our track cars into even more track friendly beasts. Thank you so much!

I’ve been going to XLR8 for years and the service has always been great. They are an honest group of bright, thoughtful auto enthusiasts. Work is high quality and the attention to detail is just as good as the personal service they offer to their customers. I would not go anywhere else if I wanted high quality performance work done to my cars.

XLR8 got my tires in within hours and I was able get them install the next day. Everyone there was super helpful and I want to say thank you to Bobby in particular who installed them on my car. He took great care and nailed the tricky alignment. It took a little longer than expected but once he was done it was spot on! Rides like a dream now. So glad I didn’t skimp out and went to one of those local chain tire shop.

Knowledgeable and honest. No hidden fees, responsive, mechanical intelligent, amicable, detailed and kind. Found these guys trough a random search to fix my German problem child and they delivered on time, price and parts.

Every step of the way either Justin or the owner called and emailed me. Have them an impossible time line and they completed it with hours to spare. The ability to be detailed and explain procedures on factual timelines is a super power they have. They also have a magical parts department that can make anything appear immediately.

Called Excelerate Performance about some specific items and the staff there was not only courteous but knowledge and willing to help. I got what I needed from them without any issues. 10/10, would do business with again.

The MSS Sport Kit setup is great. I don’t think I can find anything negative to say. The ride is smooth, the car stays firmly planted and doesn’t lean. Very nice. Thanks for your help, Greg.

Had an amazing experience with the guys at Excelerate Performance before, during and after my service! I had called prior in regards to an AWE exhaust, and both Greg and Josh were a huge help with honest suggestions, feedback and tips all within my best interest. Such a beautiful facility, professional appearance, knowledgeable and friendly staff, and amazing work!!

Excelerate is awesome for all kinds of work on German cars. I had work done on my Audi and will definitely be back for more. Their mechanics go the extra mile and seem more qualified than most dealership services. I highly recommend them!

Excellent service, very knowledgeable.Extremely friendly. I will use their services in the future and would refer them to anyone in need of their expertise.

Excelerate was able to take on my fairly large job on a whim. In addition they did a lot of background research to ensure they were solving my complex work the correct way; which is extremely important since they warranty their work. I’ve been going to Excelerate for almost 5 years now and will keep going back.

Words can’t express how satisfied I am with the service provided. Customer service is top notch. Direct, accurate and most importantly honest. I also have to mention that their waiting area is well organized and clean. Excelerate performance was recommended by a good friend and I myself would also recommend this place. The almost two hours drive it took me to get there is well worth it. If you need a trustworthy place. Look no further.

Very honest and helpful, before I brought my here to get serviced or any work done. It was always giving problems, but after bringing my car to Excelerate it’s been driving amazing and I know they did it the right way. Whenever I have question or need a opinion about something, Excelerate is quick with response.

Great shop for upgrades, tuning, or maintenance work! I’ve had my Jetta TDi, Golf, and 911 Turbo all worked on here. Very professional and extremely knowledgeable, particularly when it comes to Volkswagen Group vehicles. Waiting area is clean and staff are always helpful. Rates are very reasonable, especially considering the quality of mechanic you’re getting. They offer different hourly rates depending on whether your car is Japanese/American, German, or Exotic. Overall, excellent customer service and very good mechanics, I just wish I lived closer to Branford…

Spoke to the service manager about a problem I’m having with my 2010 Volkswagen Passat. The gentleman I spoke to was extremely knowledgable and helpful with my problem. I’ve spoken to many repair shops about it and nobody describe it as well as these guys. I know have a better idea of where to go from here just from speaking with him for about 5 minutes. Great customer service. Sad I’m across the country or I would 100% bring my vw here!

Don’t expect anything else but the best from these guys.

I’ve been taking my 01 TT 225 to Excelerate Performance for well over a year now. These guys do great work, service is outstanding and they take pride in what they do! (Rare these days.). Their new facility is outstanding and boasts a comfortable waiting area…

Place totally rocks and Justin is the best service manager at any place I’ve ever been!
