Highly recommend for great customer service and competitive pricing. They went out of way to take off dent on the front bumper of my car and they didn’t charge extra for it. Quite obvious to me that they want to win customer hearts not just money!!

Response from the owner:Glad we could help you Samay!

Rafi Fadle Aziz

I recently had my exhaust installed at this shop, and I couldn't be more pleased with the experience. The team was excellent, maintaining open and honest communication throughout the service. I had several questions, and they patiently answered each one without any hint of annoyance. Their transparency and willingness to accommodate my requests made me feel very comfortable. A special shoutout to Gagandeep for his outstanding service and friendly personality. After a less-than-stellar experience at a performance shop in Pickering, I was hesitant to try again, but this shop has truly restored my faith. I’m thrilled to have found such a reliable performance shop in the Durham region. I will definitely return for future auto work and look forward to building a lasting relationship with this fantastic team!

Brought my truck in to change the exhaust so i could get a deeper sound and a little louder . Amar listened to what i wanted and ordered what was needed . Part took a little longer but no worries they were prompt in keeping me informed . Sounds amazing and the decimal level comes in a little louder . I could not be happier . Amazing service very polite from all employees that i interacted with , i actually felt like they cared about what i wanted. Also as i was leaving i was told to see if its the sound im looking for as they could make it louder . These guys a great. Highly recommend. Been back for headlight and taillight install . Again they did a fantastic job

I brought in my 2003 G35 Coupe for a full clutch kit replacement, these guys were super helpful and informing with a great price. Will be coming back in the future

dante cuadrossegovia

Service is excellent, inspection is thorough, service is delivered promptly and pricing is reasonable. Also, their staff is gentle, friendly and patient with customers with no technical knowledge. My wife is a bit skittish when visiting mechanics in general, I advised her to take her car to Parts plugs due to engine light on, she did it today and loved the attention, she is changing mechanic moving forward!

Response from the owner:Always happy to help Dante!

Karim Khan

Feroz Awan

I was amazed at the honesty and professionalism of this Auto shop. I went thinking I’ll need several hundred dollars of repairs but it was something really minute and they fixed it without charging a single cent and in a jiffy after their working hours were over!! I’d recommend this place to anyone. Great work guys!!

Response from the owner:Happy to help Feroz, have a safe drive back to Virginia!

cozm1kblast 2005

I had a fantastic experience with Parts Plug. Their staff was knowledgeable, patient, and truly understood the needs of performance car enthusiasts. I was after a specific O-ring for my HKS BOV on an N54 build, and not only did they have exactly what I needed, but they also helped me confirm the correct size over the phone.

Sky Gallagher

I had my Jettas engine replaced by these guys a few years ago. I always send anyone I know with big issues to them to fix it up for an affordable price. Figured I should write a review about my experience. Thank you's again 👏

Response from the owner:Thanks for your confidence Sky!

Josh Urdaneta

Sad that they have bots and fake profiles that lowers their rep. Outstanding people and customer service, very knowledgeable. I go here for the typical oil changes and inspections. Never had a problem.

Response from the owner:Thank you for your support Josh, glad we could help you!

I made a two hour drive each way to pick up Ethanol for my race car from these guys. Great experience all around. Cheapest price in Canada. Very professional, extremely kind. I'd absolutely recommend them. A++

Unlock Your Vehicle’s True Potential with Performance Tuning

At Parts Plug, we specialize in performance tuning to maximize your vehicle’s power, efficiency, and overall driving experience. Whether you’re looking for more horsepower, improved throttle response, or enhanced fuel economy, our expert tuning solutions are designed to unleash the full potential of your engine.

What is Performance Tuning?

Modern vehicles come with factory-set ECU (Engine Control Unit) parameters that prioritize reliability and fuel economy over raw performance. Performance tuning involves optimizing these settings by adjusting air-fuel ratios, ignition timing, boost pressure (for turbocharged vehicles), and other key engine parameters. This results in a more responsive, powerful, and efficient driving experience.

Enhanced Throttle Response – Reduce throttle lag for a sharper, more immediate response.
Optimized Fuel Efficiency – A properly tuned engine can improve MPG under normal driving conditions.
Custom Tuning for Modifications – Maximize the benefits of aftermarket parts like intakes, exhausts, and turbo upgrades.
Better Boost Control – Increase or fine-tune boost for more power and efficiency.
Improved Driving Dynamics – Smoother power delivery and a more engaging ride.
Race & Track Optimization – Fine-tune launch control, speed limiters, rev limits, and shift points for high-performance driving.
