Performance Improvements Toronto
The original Speed Shop since 1964
Performance Improvements Speed Shops has been selling performance auto parts in Toronto since 1964! Originally located in a little shop at the corner of Kipling and the Queensway, we expanded east down the street to 1100 the Queensway at Islington, (right next door to the liquor store,) before moving to our new Super Store on Advance.
Performance Improvements Toronto is now at 87 Advance Road, located between Kipling Avenue and Islington Avenue, south of Bloor Street and north of the Queensway in the newly named "Assembly District" ? an emerging new creative cluster of indie businesses and unique workspaces that are restoring the glory of Etobicoke?Lakeshore?s light industrial past.

No Summit cross-border Surprise! Canadians buying from the big American mail-order companies have learned the hard way that the price you see on the screen, is not the price you pay when it gets to your door. Shipping & "Handling" charges, Duty, Brokerage Fees and Taxes all end up making the price vastly higher than the original number. Summit Racing has finally updated their shopping cart to show customers the various shipping charges they will be facing: Shipping Charge, Tax & Duty, then an Additional Shipping Charge, and finally a Delivery and Handling Charge!

LS Gen IV Engines 2005 - Present: How to build max performance by Mike Mavrigian is a book that every hotrodder should have in their arsenal. Why? Because the GM LS Gen IV engine is the most popular powerplant for engine swap projects. I see so many GM LS Gen IV engines in Fords, Chryslers, and other cars because of the ease of producing high-performance out of this powerplant. Mike Mavrigian book unlocks the complexity of the GM LS Gen IV engine. He makes it so easy to understand that even my 19-year-old granddaughter could make her car go faster. I really enjoyed learning how to make more horsepower with this engine by getting more air and fuel into the engine. Also, the book covered which aftermarket heads to purchase and if I chose to stay with the stock heads how to port them for maximum performance. This is definitely a book you need in your library.
Delivery was as promised. Product was as advertised. I ordered 4 caps, 3 came sealed in poly the 4th was not in a bag, had a small dent and some internal surface rust. For the price they are better than I expected.
Another must-have book for any car enthusiast especialy those who want to restore Fox Body Mustangs 1979-1993. It contains the history of the Fox Body Mustang, including the Limited Editions and Cobra. It gives tips on how to get started, DIY, and disassembly. Chapters include... The Body, Interior, Climate Control, Chassis and Brakes, Engine, Driveline, Electrical, Inspections, Operational checks, test driving, maintenance, etc. Like always, the photos are amazing! Very detailed book from beginning to end. Step by step instructions, and many helpful tips.
Really clear photos and really detailed instructions well written book. Its a new project for me to try with my son he likes trying new things and its really easy to fallow the instructions
It was very well written. The book had high quality pictures and instructions that were clear and concise. Nearly step-by-step instructions were obviously well researched, so if you decide to swap out your engine, you'll be able to do it quickly and accurately using this book as a guide.
A nice effort to cover what might be considered to be a pretty narrow area, i.e. a subset of GM engines from 2005 to now, however, that subset still covers a large number of engine configurations including both iron and aluminum blocks of displacements from 4.8 to 7.0 liters. As a result, the book can seem a bit too diverse. The author does, however, do an admirable job segregating content with the use of tabular graphics and dedicated paragraphs to speak to the unique configurations. With ~80 pages dedicated to the stock engine details and another ~45 dedicated to the builds of 2 high performance instances and given the range of engines discussed, the material is not extremely detailed, however, the intended audience will likely be relatively familiar with the GM V8 and not need the fundamentals repeated. Overall, a nice work for the GM V8 aficionado or the owner of an equipped vehicle who wants to better understand what's going on under the hood.
Informative, clear photographs and schematics, and detailed instructions duly noted. Simple to follow and understand especially if you have not done a swap.

Dealt with P/I in Oshawa for many years.
No problems with returns or parts guarantees over the years.
Sadly the Oshawa store closed due to the covid situation.
The store manager had been the strength of the store for many years and it was time for him to retire.
Always a positive experience
