Kirk is nothing less than a master of his trade. If you have any model mustang, he is the first person you should not hesitate to consult. I had constant issues with my readiness monitors and the ECM on my 2012 Mustang Shelby. He used his technology to identify the exact issue that not even the Ford dealership or my trusted repair shop could figure out with all of their own technology. He also helped me to figure out the most cost effective way to resolve the issue now having diagnosed the problem. Without him and his vast knowledgebase of high performance vehicles, I may have even considered selling my car. There is a reason every mustang owner knows the name "Promodular Performance". read more

IT OUT! My car is still sitting in the shop! And what is done is used my money to pay for other parts for other customers vehicles. IS LITERALLY! Do not pay in cash or a check! Use your credit card so you can dispute! This has been going on for a while so i've been able to keep an eye out on other work that he's doing for other vehicles. And for simple work they're sitting around way too long and this was stuff brought in after me. Way after. I've been to the shop at least 30 times And start another company Ren auto? So if there's anybody else that sees review, please contact me.Tony frank marble falls A class action lawsuit is pending. And it's going straight to the attorney general's desk. Recently there's been a lot of people that have not had a good experience. When kirk took my money from me. He used it to pay for other people's cars. The amount of vehicles that he's had in and out of the shop since he's had my car is almost incomprehensible. You'd think his pockets for owning a business like this would be a little deeper than that. I read all these reviews that are positive. Sounds like he's good at changing oil and batteries. Hey definitely can tune a car. So I wish you'd get my car done so he can tune it. LOL so in a nutshell! With all the recent information that has been compiled. The attorney general's office of the state of texas. Could be putting locks on his doors! And everybody's vehicles that are in his shop are going to be locked up! so if I were the employees I would be taken my tools home every day UPDATE After 4 months he said he installed the fuel system and got the axle put on the transmission. He's had the motor now for over a week and it's still sitting on the floor. After 4 months he's told me the injectors are on backorder. The amount of liens rumors are are starting to pile up into the teens. Kurt told me he would split the cost of a rental unit to put my car in and tell the motor came in right said it was $200 so it'd be $100 a month for me I said yeah sure let's go ahead . When I went to check on my car in the rental unit when I found it he had stacked a bunch of the parts from the motor in the back of my vette. And there were it was either three or five more Mustangs in there. So does that mean I made some money on the storage unit . Or is he a shyster ! read more

I would never bring let this man touch my car again! I paid him 20k in cash upfront and he had my car for 5 years and it still wasn't complete!! he continued to ask for more money and sued me for more! I retained an attorney and got my car back!! read more

Worst Auto shop experience I've had. I've only had my car back 4 weeks and put 500 miles on it. After a poor SC installation job, my car sits in my garage not running waiting on a reputable shop to fix Kirk's EXPERTISE... If you're considering using Kirk for any mods, I would suggest you find another shop. I've wasted lots of money and time listening to Kirk's excuses.... Don't make the same mistake I did.

Pro Modular Performance - Thank you for letting me use your place of business. - Auto Repair Near Me - Austin, Texas

The Good: Super knowledgeable and do have a very strong expertise of Mustangs and really all sports cars for that matter. A strong wealth of knowledge that will walk through in detail the fixes needing to be completed. Also very well connected with local folks i.e. paint, exhaust and other services. Overall the businesses does have a good intention to take care of the customer. Opportunities: 1) Timelines are horrendous and not even close to what the actual will be. Prices tend to be much higher than originally anticipated (not all on the business as things do tend to come up outside of their control). Was originally told get ready, we are going to get this thing quick. Paid 2500 up front in November of 2020 with a target of 6K. Car was still not completed as of June of 2022 12K later. Dreadfully slow and really unreasonable. There will be a follow up I am sure about covid, parts suppliers and staffing. Kind of funny on parts I ordered myself no issues. Staffing I get, but prioritization was really bad. Saw several cars come and go while mine collected dust. 2) Coordination with fellow partners (Exhaust) was also super slow. I resulted to check on my car myself. Come to find out there was no communication when it was dropped offer. Car was fixed and sat there. Follow up was trailer broke. Was true, but after this many months its a lack of planning. 3) Follow up was rough. I would go weeks without an update. I understand the team is busy, but when spending money dropping a line once in a while would be nice. Overall I am 12K in and resulted to having to tow my car back to my house incomplete because of the above and frankly just lost faith in Promodular. I wish them the best, but unfortunately do no recommend. I will be checking out 210 performance in San Antonio who already has a much better response. Again, this is my experience and may not be everyones, so take it for what its worth. read more

I entrusted Kirk with my 1999 Mustang Cobra Convertible, and was extremely disappointed. He worked on the car on multiple occasions, starting with a brake and clutch issue. I also had a "loose" feeling in the back suspension, which he incorrectly diagnosed as a bad tie rod. Strike One: I was charged for an adjustable clutch cable, which I was told by a tech on my next visit it was never installed. The cable did finally get installed when I called Kirk out on it. Strike Two: The "loose" back end wasn't a bad tie rod. It was a bad wheel bearing discovered by another shop. I don't understand how that got missed. Strike Three: The clutch wasn't installed properly. I told Kirk it didn't feel right, and he argued that it was "in my head". Another shop not only discovered the loose clutch, but also that ProMod installed the transmission brace backwards when they put the car back together. I thought I had found a shop that I could trust, but I won't be going back. read more

Before taking your car here, call any other performance shop in the Austin area and ask for a recommendation where to take a mustang/ford. I was told "no, I cannot recommend anywhere trustworthy in Austin" and "I know a guy, but I would send my worst enemy to him." among other things. Unfortunately, I did not know this beforehand. This was from me calling around over the last few weeks to find somewhere else to take my car to be completed. My car has now been at Pro Mod for SEVEN years. Currently, I am being told by Kirk that the only thing needed is a dyno tune, but have been told that for the past two years. The car sat for so long, I guess uncovered and probably out in a field (what I've heard from others), that it rusted a hole in the headers. This was after he backed into it, damaged the front bumper and the sent it to his "storage facility" instead of sending it to a body shop immediately. Recently, Kirk decided to attempt "friendly" conversation by texting me pictures of work he had done on his bike and sending me "positivity" songs. At this time, I asked him for an update on my car. I sent four texts between April 12th and May 19th without a response from him. Finally, I stopped into the shop and confront him face to face. This is when he told me about the headers and said he couldn't find any because they were all backordered. I did one google search and found them immediately at American Muscle. At this moment, he is again ignoring my texts and emails. He said my car has been moved to his "new location" in Marble Falls, but ignores my requests for this new address. I have also asked for a video of the car running to show a potential buyer which he agreed to, but took two weeks to send. Update: Kirk sent me a bill on 7/21 stating that the balance owed for work on my car was $27.73. On 9/12 he reprinted the bill with the exact same charges and it now says I owe 4k. Parts he said he would cover (I.e. fuel pump since he left it sitting so long waiting for body work), I am now being charged for as well as labor that I was told would be discounted is now full price. read more

Delay after delay after delay followed by lie after lie and the the work wasn't good enough to even classify as subpar.

First I want to extend an "LOL" to the snowflake who is publicly accusing the shop owner of racial tendencies because he didn't like the price he was quoted. I don't know Kirk personally, so I don't know what his stance is on race relations. But I'd also bet you don't know him personally, either. Get outta here. I came in for an oil change on my camaro and to discuss the future build out of my car. I genuinely enjoyed the conversations I had with Kirk and the vibe of the shop. Thanks for helping me, I'll be back! read more

Not a good shop, I had a supercharger installed and was given my car back with less horsepower than stock. Not sure why they are still in business . read more

I brought in my 15' SRT 392 for a tune.. I have Texas Speed Long tube headers installed and needed a tune. After beginNing the tune there was a small hiccup because the install I had done previously before bringing it to pro mod had exhaust leaks. Kirk was professional and understanding gave me direction on getting it corrected.. Super nice throughout the whole situation helped me keep my cool. by the end of the ordeal my car is performing amazing and I'll definitely refer all of my friends and family. AMAZING SHOP! COOL STAFF!! FAST CARS!! one of the top shops in Austin (Prefer over torque performance lol) thanks Kirk and the Pro Mod team!! read more

After getting a partially restored '83 Jeep CJ-7, I needed considerable work on the carburetor, steering, exhaust, and electrical system. I also wanted to put a few accessories (lights, rear bumper tire mount, new seat, console, etc.). My first trip was to JeepMasters, where I spent a few thousand dollars and came away less than satisfied. They could handle the simple accessory add-ons and basic repairs, but didn't solve the real issues I had with keeping it running consistently, and charged $800 for electrical "clean up" that actually made things worse when I picked it up. After a couple months of searching for someone that I felt could handle the work, I ended up with Kirk at ProModular Performance. Within minutes, he was able to diagnose issues and explain why it was running so poorly. I actually waited 3-4 months before writing this review, because I wanted to make sure the initial improvements lasted...and they have. The Jeep has consistently run extremely well, and came with about a 15-20% gas mileage improvement. There was a combination of things, ranging from timing and carb adjustments to wiring changes and exhaust enhancements (it doesn't reek of gas and exhaust now). They are the only ones that will touch my classic Jeep from now on. For all of you other Jeep owners feeling overcharged and underserved, come see Kirk at ProModular Performance. read more

At first I thought PMP was the place to go! I called Kirk and told him about my exhaust system set up and needing to connect to my headers. He also mentioned I need to get the car tuned due to the headers and the car running rich. Well after $1,300 later, I got the tune...can't tell the difference though, and he did connect my exhaust. However, I got a CEL and the code was a knock sensor. When Kirk saw that he kind of scratched his head and did not know why. I asked about tunning out the sensor, but he said that would not be the first choice, but instead to change the brand of gas I use. This was a good advice, but it seemed like it was the only advice he had. I tried to call him back about the CEL, but he would not return my call...figuring it was during the Christmas/New Year holidays, I waited until after the holidays. Tried to call, text and email him and no response. I now had a crack in the weld on my exhaust where the connection was made, sent him pics, and nothing. I called twice and each time he would not pick up, and I could not leave a message as his mail box was full...tells me he doesn't even check his voice messages...very bad communication!! I ended up taking my car to Three Point Automotive today, and they took my car up and had the crack welded up in 20 minutes...cost $15! As for the knock sensor, the dealer took care of that under warranty. As mentioned, I thought this was a great place to take my car in the future, but now I don't think I'll go back there again...too bad, I guess he is just too busy to help his customers...maybe he needs to lose some of them to other shops! read more

Horrible shop practices with a hint of racial undertones at this place. Asked for a quote on a repair for my vehicle and couldn't get a direct estimate from the owner Kirk. Finally I broke down and agreed to a diagnostic which he over charged me for but the worst part is that he called a friend of mine to tell him FIRST what was wrong with my vehicle. What horrible customer service. I get it if he has a man crush on my buddy but I was the customer not him. After the over priced diagnostic he stated he could fix the issue provided a deposit up front as if it was some huge job. I asked my friend if the guy has ever asked him for a deposit before and he replied, "hell no..and I have had 3 times the amount of work that you are having done to your vehicle. I would just take your car somewhere else, something is fishy with this guy". So I did and haven't regretted the decision yet... read more

Well if you own a hot rod and you're looking for Performance Shop, Pro modular performance is not the place!! I took my vehicle up there for 10 days of work, 18 days later nothing is done to it he ordered the wrong parts and then he charges me $500 for his fuck up! Guys got a lot to learn about people! Doesn't answer your phone call doesn't send your emails and fucking screws his clients!! Absolutely disappointed in him and the way he runs his business! What a fucking joke! Just remember Karma is a bitch what goes around comes around!! One pissed off ,unsatisfied never again client!! And just a heads up don't give the motherfucker cash read more

I never had issues with a mechanic in my entire life until I met Kirk. He paints a pretty picture in the beginning, comes across as if he's your best friend, but once he has you money, he will ask for more, more and more money. Basically, he did the following; custom tune, installation of headers, Boss 302 intake and CAI. Kirk said my car would pass state inspection and that I would not have a check engine light...guaranteed. I asked this several times. Be careful and heed my WARNING. If you decide to go to his shop, he will ask for a down payment. For me it was $3,000. Once you give him your money, you will be forced to sign a document that has all kinds of disclaimers such as, "PMP does not guarantee emission test results or passing of emission test either expressed, etc". He has you sign this after he takes your money. This contradicts what he told me earlier. Why have this written down and then make false promises? I had no choice but to follow through because guess what? There are NO REFUNDS. I was forced to do business with this guy or lose $3,000. Also, keep in mind, the initial estimate he gives you in writing will increase. Ready for the bad news? The check engine light came on after this shop worked on my car. It was obviously not going to pass inspection. Each time I would take my car back to the shop, Kirk would ask for more money. After several attempts to get my car running as it should and trying to figure out why that check engine light kept coming on, I finally gave up. On top of all that, the car runs crappy as well. All he does is guess. He throws on parts and doesn't have a clue what he is doing. He loves to charge you more money and continuously lies to your face. Also, after doing research, I noticed he has the bad reviews removed from Google. Guys, look around, even if you have to go outside of Austin to find a real professional tuner. Avoid this place at all costs. You were warned. read more

Pro Modular was very helpful with replacing the rear hub on my wife's Highlander. He ran into an issue and called me with the options and already had a part coming for one of the options. Great service and great work. read more

Kirk was very polite and very insightful. Took the time to explain the issue with my 2003 Cobra Came to install a clutch . I told him to take his time that I had no rush to get the car back He was done next day , the car runs great and I couldn't be happier with the final result, will definitely be coming back for more mods to my car. Thank you very much Kirk!! You guys are super awesome read more

Kirk is the greatest! His crew is awesome also. I rarely write reviews but in this case I felt compelled to do so because the great service that was provided. If you want your car done right don't hesitate to take it there. I was wary going in because bad experiences with so called "professionals" at other places. But these guys are good, hard working, and caring people who handled my car with care. It very apparent to me why Pro Modular has so many great reviews...They are the best! read more

Good experience with this business. Highly recommended. Special Thank you Kirk and Charles

Never thought I would have my car worked on by an 8yr old. Do not come here unless you enjoy getting the run around and the constant hand sticking out for more money after an error they were responsible for. They are good if you need a spark plug changed (MAYBE)... I've been trying to give them credit for SOMETHING but I honestly can't. read more

Kirk has had my truck for many months and charged me insane amounts of money to fix basic Bolton parts and time my carb . I constantly get the run around and don't get return calls ever . I've literally called him from my personal phone and he forwarded me to voice mail and called back within 30 seconds from a different phone and he will pic up it's like playing games with a two year old that has my 30k$ show truck . So after all this he gives it back to me on a dark rainy night I drive it home inform him that the over drive isn't shifting he says drive it around for a week or two bring it back and see if u find anything els that isn't working correct . Mind you he's had my truck for almost 5 months now . I take it the next morning to wash it as is been sitting outside and getting dirty also PARKED OUT FRONT which I was assured it wouldn't be . When I was washing it I noticed a giant chip in the hood mind you I got the truck back at night while raining and this is what I get the next day after him holding my vehicle for months . I pop the hood and my show ready firewall and hood wer set on fire . I instantly text and call him and his reply was oh yeah I forgot about that and then he lies and says it was like that for a while which is a lie I stopped into check on my truck with concern many times and took video and pics of the non progress. He says he will have it repainted I'm like no sh*t Sherlock I'm going to take you to court if you don't . When I drop it off I also informed him the truck will not shut off he said that the first time that he has a hard time tuning in the carburetor which he charges me three times to take apart and decided that it was not usable mind you it's a brand new carburetor and charge me another $800 to put a different carburetor on which is insane so when I take it back and I ask him to take a look at the car but the transmission he gives me this runaround story and says that's just the way it is now and it also sends me an email saying I'm sorry you're having trouble with your truck he really does not acknowledge how much he screwed me over and put me in a financial bind. Do not do business with this man ask around at other Performance shops before you go to the shop because he has a really bad name in the area I wish I would've known that before I just looked at reviews . Also since he's had my truck I've called and emailed many times to see the progress on the paint it's been almost 2 weeks and there's been no progress apparently he also asked what I would be willing to sell it for and when I told him the price he asked well what's your bottom dollar and I said that is what I want out of it and he never called me back. I feel like he's holding my truck to try and get me in the worst financial bind to where he can purchase my truck or have somebody to purchase for much much cheaper predicting my financial instability because I've told him about this through email many many times I want my truck back Kirk and I want the work I paid you for completed and I want to not have to chase you around to get MY vehicle back that I paid YOU to work on . Pics of my firewall and hood before kirks team .. read more

Kirk and his crew are A+ They installed long tube headers , mid pipe and high flow cats on my 2012 Chrysler 300 srt8. This install on the header job is no joke and very difficult. Also I was on a time crunch to get my car back and his crew stayed later and worked till 8:30 at night to finish up the job. If you are looking for a high performance shop that does excellent work look no further. They do any type of engine work you may need for your after mkt hot rod or Classic car hot rod. I wouldn't trust anyone else in Austin to touch my car besides these guys! read more

Kirk came to the rescue when my check engine light came on, he was able to access what was wrong and 24 hours later I was able to get it fixed under warranty at the dealership! Knowing nothing about cars he explained to me the importance and how time essential it was to get my Jeep fixed. Fantastic customer service , great at explaining in detail and when and if I ever need Kirk's assistance and services he is going to be the first one I call and recommend! read more

I had my car serviced at PMP and I just want to say , Kirk was very kind , polite and very professional. Excellent experience for me I will be going back. read more

Kirk was very polite and helpful when I brought my '06 GT in for a tune! Will definitely be coming back!

This review does not do the service that Kirk did justice, I cannot recommend this shop high enough! After having a moble mechanic mess up the installation of my intake manifold for four hundred and a dealer wanting to charge me over $1200 dollars. I was blessed enough to get Kirk recommended to me by a stranger. Kirk was nice enough to rescue my car from the dealer service center in south Austin and take my car to his shop on Metric. Once there he was able to quickly diagnose the problem and fix it in a quick turnaround. I am doing back-flips of joy to finally find a HONEST Mechanic. I really thought they were extincted! read more

I really wish I could rate this business a -*. That is right a negative star. The experience we had with this company is unimaginable!! We conducted business with Kirk. After giving him $4200 in labor, purchasing our own motor for $1800 and having it sent to them. They totally screwed us. We picked up our 85 Cutlass from them after a month. They then charged us an extra $727 dollars for additional labor which we were shocked but paid nonetheless drove the car 2 blocks and the car cut off. We called Kirk as he is whom we deal and was very surprised with his nonchalant response. He came and started the car and it cut off again. He told us that his job was done. We paid him to put the engine In and he did that. So I guess that it matters not that the brand new engine did work. He was not supportive at all in helping to come to a resolution. Not only is that not business like, the customer service was NOT important. I have never in my 45 years of life been treated with such disrespect. Especially when I spending that type of money I fully intend to file a report with the Better Business Bureau, as well as a civil suit. I beg that you really consider a different shop for any major service that you may need. Please also do your diligence and research before spending your hard earned money with this merchant. Respectfully Submitted, The O'Lineys read more

I got my new exhaust installed on my 2015 mustang GT here last night. It was my first time at PMP, I was recommended by a good friend, and I was not disappointed. Kirk is a great guy who knows, and loves his mustangs! He was kind enough to take my install on short notice, and they even stayed after hours to finish the job, and make sure everything was perfect. I will definitely be going back to Pro Modular Performance with my future mods. Would highly recommend read more

Kirk and his crew do a great job. Whether it's a routine oil change or installing a supercharger, I will always trust my Mustang to Pro Modular Performance! read more

PMP worked on my 1992 Mustang GT for 9 months and he charged me 10k. Took my car in for very easy engine mods upgrades and at the end of 9 month, with tuning/dyno my car ran like shit. I went back a week after I got my car to talk with Kirk and he said he'll look into it but of course he wanted more money. Screw that!! Til this day he has not called me to check up on my situation with my car. So I took my car to S.A. to a shop called 210 Performance so he can fix my car and make it run the way it should have. Kirk is a nice guy but his customer service sucks and at the end they did a poor piss job. Save your money and go else where! Becareful with PMP! read more

I am happy with the work that PMP performed.. Kirk and his team are very knowledgeable about what they are doing and definitely masters of their craft. I will return for more work soon. Thanks again!! read more

Kirk assisted with an exhaust repair same-day and I was able to get my car back on the road within hours of finding the problem. He was communicative, quickly identified a solution and went out of his way to organize an after-hours pickup. Couldn't have asked for more read more

Had some work done on my 1993 5.0 that had been sitting for awhile. They had it for about 2 months chasing down wiring issues. Once I got it back, it ran fine but there were many things that they"fixed" with the wiring that looked like crap. Wires and relays not secured where they should be, no plastic loom to protect the wires from squirrels (which is why it wouldn't run), rusty razor blades and electrical tape scraps left here and there. We agreed for them to have it towed back to their shop at their expense but their towing company (Rodriguez Towing) picked up the wrong car! They picked up my mom's car which I had just finished polishing and waxing a couple days before and the wrecker driver got his greasy handprints on it and scratched the paint with his gloves. I was not home when they picked it up and the driver drove through half of my front yard and broke two sprinkler heads in the process! They don't have a phone line for the shop so they can't answer any questions that I may have. The number rings the owner's cell phone and he always seems to be "out of town." He takes forever to respond to text messages or voicemails. I sent him pictures of the things they supposedly fixed and just responded with "K." I told him I would be fixing it to my liking and he didn't care. read more

I took my 1984 Jeep CJ7 in for a complete 350 v8 engine swap which is no easy task. Kirk and team took the time to do a complete inventory or all the parts it would take to a quality engine conversion; engine mounts, cooling fan, radiator, drivetrain, ...... All the way to every bolt. Proper expectations were set up front and was the most thorough shop by far that I had reached out to. Other well known Jeep places were way over priced, Just Jeeps failed to even Followup after multiple attempts and others just did not seem to have the expertise PMP portrayed. Anyone looking to do a engine conversion in their jeep should definitely check out PMP and they have the recipe for success. Badass jeep now! read more
