The service at Six Star is top notch. I contacted these guys regarding my Legacy GT wagon in need of some TLC. After a thorough review of the car, they worked with me on determining the best plan of attack for what I was looking for and within my budget.
Despite being a busy shop they got the car back to me quick and in great shape.
Overall, can't recommend them enough.
Great service, communication, and pricing.
Not just a tuner shop, they do it all.
Heck, they even recommended a body shop.
As long as I am a Subaru owner I'll be coming back to Six Star.

Great customer service! The sales manager Chris was very knowledgeable on my Subaru Legacy year and was able to guess what the problem was before his mechanic even put it up on the lift. Bad wheel bearing. The shop seemed very busy so best to drop your vehicle off rather than wait. I will be back for my next 30k scheduled maintenance checkpoint.

This is an amazing shop with amazing people working together! They have helped me 3 different times now, twice with getting me clutches for my racecar while I've been traveling from the west coast. The last time they got my coovers adjust and alignment at while they were getting ready for a show. I would recommend them to anyone who has a Subaru, they know what they are doing, and pushing the limits with new stuff. Thank you Six Star Motorsports!

Hands down the best service to use when needing to tune your subaru. This place was a little bit out of the way but i was beyond happy with the outcome. I will be returning for all my subaru needs

Do not go to the dealership for any work. This is the place you want to take your Subaru to for either basic maintenance, repair work or tuning. They will be beat dealership pricing, and use OEM parts. Don't give your money to the dealership give it to them!

If you got a Subaru, stock of modified, this is where you want to go! They know everything about these cars. It’s more than just making cars go faster, they do all the routine maintenance to keep it running forever also! Super humble people and always have the right answer. Unlike dealerships, they will always shoot you straight, they value integrity over profit in my opinion, amazing service from some really cool dudes!

These folks definitely live up to their reputation and exceed all expectations! As a 1st time service customer, I was I treated like a valued regular, even scheduling my appointment around work & severe weather. Once I arrived, I was given the opportunity to wait & the service was completed quicker than I anticipated. The inspection results were detailed and honest with explanation that anyone from a new Subaru owner, to a long time technical enthusiast can understand easily. Hands down best customer service from ANY repair shop. I'll be spending more time & money there whenever it comes anything my Subaru needs.

I have taken 2 cars here (one Subaru and one not) and both times I was very pleased with their service.
Even before I started spending on repairs of the first car, they were more than willing to talk me through the purchase of a used Subaru and warned me of things to look out for. More often than not, I learn things from just being in the shop and asking questions.
All of the employees are genuinely friendly and are just looking to help you achieve your goals. If you’re looking for a good, honest group of mechanics and enthusiasts, this is the place.
Also, they keep motul products in stock (which isn’t always common) and have a good parts counter, if you’re thinking about aftermarket parts check here first.

This is my first experience with Six Star Motorsports. I was having my tuning done by Boosted Tuning Performance (Graham) at their location. My car had just recently had a new short block put in by my local dealership. I had been having issues from day one. Weeks of fighting with the dealership to make it right. They had the car for over 13 weeks total and gave me every excuse in the book why it wasn’t running right. I tell you this information because on my day of tuning with Boosted Performance Tuning at Six Star Motorsports I was having issues where my tune session had to be postponed. The guys at Six Star found the issues AND repaired it in 45 minutes. Yes you read that right. 45 minutes. My car got tuned and is running better than ever. These guys are passionate about what they do. I got a tour of the shop and some of their projects. I literally spent the entire day around this shop and saw many interactions with customers in person and on the phone. I was so happy and impressed with these guys that I got a quote for my other Subaru and will be putting it on a trailer and driving 3 hours to drop it off with them. I trust them to work on my vehicles. They have earned a new loyal customer. Thank you guys! I’ll be seeing you!

I've been to Six Star a number of times and they have never let me down. Good pricing on parts, quality service on odd jobs, people who know how to work on a Subaru and have the right tools for the job. Mark and the rest of the team have been great to work with.

If you love your Subaru as much as I do, you want to take it to a shop that you can trust. The crew at 6 star, no matter if your issue is big or small will be there for you to give you the best answers and service your car deserves. I hope to have this shop build my car one day and I will not take it anywhere else. If your looking for quality work and a great crew look no further. Thanks guys!

Great shop. Everyone is very cool and knowledgeable. I've been in a few times to have work done on my WRX, or just to ask general questions, and it's always a good experience. They specialize in a lot of aftermarket work, but don't hesitate to stop in if your vehicle is stock; you can also get routine maintenance done at reasonable prices. So check them out!

Mark and the gang are awesome! Helped me out with some blown coilovers that I didn’t get from them or installed there (first mistake) and got them taken care of under warranty. Thanks Dewey for the rear springs that now match the fronts. I can’t thank these guys enough. The car feels so much better and doesn’t have that annoying clunk over every bump. The only shop I will ever take my car to! Thanks guys...

Never been disappointed with a single visit. I've come to the point where they are the only people I trust to service my 2014 hatch STI. Every time I get my car back from them, I drive away smiling and I can guarantee you will be too. You can really feel the difference in quality of work from the moment you step on the gas from their shop.
On top of that, these guys very inviting, personable, and honest with you. Whether you know a lot, or not so much, about cars, they will make a point to inform you on every aspect of what they do. They will also respectfully correct you, if you happen to be misinformed on something, or simply not as knowledgable. Even if you just have some questions about your car, you can ask them anything and be sure that you're getting the most accurate info.
Biggest job they did for me was fix my blown head gasket. After getting the car back, it drives better than the day I bought it. There is a sense of pride in knowing Six Star worked on your car and repping them with their logo. I don't think I will ever go anywhere else and I even go as far as saying that their shop is one of the reasons why I'll probably never move away from Illinois. Worth it.

Where do I start, the whole Six Star team can be described in one word. Integrity. They literally look out for you, your vehicle, and ultimately want you the customer, to be happy. I've brought my 15' STI there for the past 3 years ever since I moved back from the west coast and they have been nothing but a pleasure to work with. I've never been pressured or upsold on any work or unecessary parts. You must be insane to give anything less than 5 stars.

Marvin and the team were extremely helpful not just taking care of my 2002 WRX but now my 2004 WRX. From having my transmission swapped in a timely manner to managing my tuning needs for my built 2004 WRX. I can always expect timely service and genuine customer service from this shop. 5/5 A+ !!

Six Star is the only place I trust to keep my 13+ year old stock WRX on the road. Everyone in the shop is encyclopedic about Subarus and it's clear the mechanics put a lot of care into their work. Mark and his team are always thorough in their diagnosis, explain all the work up front (with photos), and provide fair, fully itemized estimates before getting started. After a number of disappointing experiences with dealers and other Subaru shops in the area over the years, I'll continue to make the trip to Six Star as long as I own a Subaru. Highly recommended!

These guys are the best!
My first interaction with this shop was when I was calling shops around the Chicago area trying to figure out who could do a stage 2 setup on my 05FXT. I was immediately drawn to them due to their super friendly nature and their expansive knowledge, not to mention their reviews. I scheduled a time with them to run some tests on my engine to see if it was fit for a stage 2 set up, since it did have about 138000 miles on it. Unfortunately they discovered a head gasket leak/failure which is not super uncommon for these cars at this age. But I was looking on the bright side because several other shops were prepared to just slap stage 2 bits on my car with no prior inspections and I wouldn’t have known any better, and then I would have encountered much bigger problems down the road. So to fix the issue of the leaky head gasket I declided to have them rebuild my engine, as opposed to just a head gasket replacement or buying a whole different car. I went with this because they have a rebuild option that isn’t focused on power, but reliability. That was very appealing to me since I wanted to be reassured that I’d have no more problems with my engine and I also wasn’t looking for crazy power numbers. Plus, at least from what I could find, six star is the only shop in the area to offer a rebuild package like that. After having the car back for a mont after the build, the engine runs buttery smooth and absolutely no problems. Plus they threw in some extra torques when they tuned it because they knew I’d like to have a little fun 😇. Couldn’t have left my car with a better bunch of guys, I highly recommend this shop!

These guys are awesome! Recently had a motor built by them for my 2018 STI. This is my first Subaru and also first turbo car so these guys took the time to really explain the process and made sure everything was getting done correctly. The guys here don’t treat you as a work order either, they will get to know you by name. Im very satisfied with my car and even more with the knowledge I’ve gained from Marvin, Mark and Dewey. This will be the only shop I take my car to.

I can't say enough good things about this shop. I've been working with them for years and they have always helped me out in times of need. Even if it was a simple oil change on my Crosstrek or a full engine build it's always a pleasure working with these guys. They will always be my go to shop!

Needed to fix an annoying leak that no one could source and fix but, Mark and the crew took great care of me, they found it and took care of it.

The team at Six Star is wonderful! They took amazing care of my Forester during its 60K/brake service, and the car feels great. Even took time to schedule a secondary inspection to diagnose a potential clutch issue. They are knowledgable, happy to answer questions, and make you feel very welcome. No doubt they are the best around, and only want the best for you and your vehicle.

Love this place! Always a friendly person there that's willing to help listen and teach. Great selection on items. If you want it and do not see it dont be hesitant to ask I'm sure they can get it for you and more than likely at a lower price as well. This place would be my first selection on localized performance knowledge based people. Highly recommended!
