Talking GrimmSpeed Checking-in

We've been lurking around the site for some time now but never really formally introduced ourselves. In short we are a small group of highly dedicated car nuts who work in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Our bread and butter has been anything Subaru. We also are in the Mitsubishi, MazdaSpeed, and Hyundai markets. We are a true garage start-up and we've been lucky enough over the years to be able to turn it into exactly the business I had dreamed....probably a lot more actually. We have a wide breadth of expertise consisting of exhaust design, gaskets, pullies, phenolic spacers, porting and polishing(services that our company was founded on), boost controllers, and many more.

Most of our decisions at GrimmSpeed are based on 3 basic principles:


1. Innovation
Our engineers need to innovate before I green light a project. They know if they propose a project to me there has to be at least one new innovative feature. It may be a completely new idea or an innovation to a current product on the market(IE, using better materials, thicker flanges, thicker piping, etc). We truly love creating products that really work. This is the funnest part of the job without a doubt(those copy cat companies have to be boring places to work at).


2. Keeping Jobs in Minnesota
Lets face it, manufacturing in the US has been lost for a long time. Its sad because manufacturing is what the country was founded on. Our goal is to do our part in bringing it back to the US. Almost all of our partners are right here in Minnesota(most of which are within an hour of us). Its not always about the $ and we are here to prove that.


3. Customer Service You Deserve
What flies for customer service these days just continues to astonish us. I don't have to tell you guys, I'm sure you are all well aware of some of the BS customer service that goes on these days, especially in our industry. Our goals are to be honest with you, be there when you need us, and to keep our word. If something is going to be delayed, we aren't going to give you some BS date when it will be ready....we will tell you exactly the most current info we have. If you need help installing our products(even after our written install guides and install videos), we will be there on the phone/email/instant message ready to help until you have figured out the issue. Last but not least, we will keep our word. This seems like common sense but these days its just not. Plain and simple, if we say we are going to do something, we will. If we say we are going to call you back, we actually will. Novel idea I know


All in all, glad to be here and excited to see what we can do with this exciting new platform. We aren't yet signed up as a vendor but we will be here to answer any questions you have. We have some great distributors/dealers that carry our full line of products....Car Mods Aus, TuSpeed, and more.

As a person of Chinese decent, I am insulted by that.

All good though, Ive got a good sense of humour, plus they probably have the last laugh once they copy anything you develop right?

I apologize for that, it wasn't my intention at all. We are just extremely passionate about supporting companies around the world that help create a better performance market...companies that put tons of time and R&D into innovating products for you guys.

Great to have you guys supporting Subaru and sharing our passion of improving them further.

What is your view around upgrading TMIC's on 08+ sti's? For 350-400hp atw target should I go FMIC?

Cheers and all the best for your continued success.
