I have been taking my Subaru to Funk E for about a year now due to the sheer amount of other wrx/sti drivers who recommended them to me. They have been extremely helpful with teaching me more about my car as I try to learn about cars. Their reliability is through the roof the best and I trust them more than any other performance shop I’ve been to. Their knowledge on cars, especially engines, is exceptional and a wonderful example of that would be their work on the Subaru called The Rainmaker. Ryan, who has had to be bombarded by 100’s of questions by me has always taken the time to explain more and more about my car and tell me what I should do to accomplish my car goals. When he first found out I wanted to learn more about my car, he had me come look at my car under the lift and explained what might be worth replacing and why. And if none of that is a good enough reason as to why you should do work with funk e built, listen to this: they have the cutest dog. I’ve never had a bad day talking to the guys at this shop and all of my work done by them has been amazing. Lastly, whenever someone asks where I get my work done, I proudly tell them that I get everything done by funk e.

These guys built my 2003 WRX back in 2014/2015 back when they were working out of a home garage. 2.5L "Frankenstein" build with an STI shortblock and ported WRX heads. James tuned the car several times and they've done all the maintenance on it apart from a couple oil changes. I still have the car, 10 years later. 215k miles and still runs like a dream and is faster than a lot of cars on the road. I no longer live in Fort Collins but I still take my car here for any big stuff. Absolute legends here.

Was here a while ago, they found nothing wrong with a car that was close to turbo bearing failure. I got charged a diagnostic fee and when I showed them the sound they provided some insight on how to communicate with the parts company which is the reason for the 2nd star. Heard they are okay with Subaru’s

They've built and serviced/upgraded my car for the last 3 years and I couldn't be happier. I wanted a fast, modified daily and they absolutely delivered. They go above and beyond with their quality work and communication. I whole heartedly recommend them to anyone who needs an upgrade/service or wants a build done on their car.

Had an excellent first experience here with my Outback. They were able to get me in promptly and resolved the issue within a few hours. Seem like genuine folks who care about their customers. I will be returning for more work in the future!

IF YOU HAVE A SUBARU, COME HERE!!!! I have been building my 2020 STI with these guys, they are the best, hands down. I cannot reiterate enough how much I love working with these guys. Eric and Ryan have been the primary mechanics, Ryan my primary source of contact. They've got the best scheduling, great prices, and great turnaround time. I've had an oilchange completed in 20 minutes. They know their stuff, they're timely, and they're fair. Not much else to ask from a mechanic. I came from PRE Racing in Portland, OR. Funny enough, FunkEBuilt regularly competes with them. THESE GUYS FIX CARS TO RACE THEIR OWN The longer you're in, the less time they have to work on their Drag-Racing car. They want you in and out, with no complaints. I've been a customer for 3+ years with tens of thousands of dollars in performance modifications to my car. I'm not going anywhere else, there's no reason to go anywhere else. I have driven from my home in Milken for a year plus just to have the peace of mind that the guys working on my car actually care.

This place is SCAMMY! Went in for a coolant leak. Within 5 minutes Tech came in and said all I needed was a new radiator cap ($13 part). They charged me $212 to replace it - $30 just for coolant which I had filled the day before (hadn't driven anywhere but the shop)! Desk guy was rude and demeaning. Overall a very disappointing experience considering I was sent here by another shop. Go anywhere else and you'll be treated better.

Great job installing a short shifter kit on my new 2024 WRX. The shop was transparent and even though they had some extra time on the install stayed true to the initial estimate. Would recommend to anybody looking to upgrade their car!

I have had the honor of knowing Ryan, James and Eric for a number of years as well as getting tuned by them. The guys are super knowledgeable and are happy to help with any questions the may arise with work being performed. I have had zero issues with my tune and my Legacy GT runs and performs better than ever. I can't wait to work with Funk E for my future build and am looking forward to seeing what she puts down at the track. 100% recommend Funk E Built! Thank you guys!!

I went to Funk E Built to have my brakes checked on my ‘23 WRX due my brake pedal feeling “spongy”. Found out that my front OEM brake lines that were reinstalled in July ‘24 at Wrights Automotive were damaged and leaking. Prior to that I had front stainless steel brake lines installed at FoCo Complete Auto Repair in April ‘24. After finding out that there’s a back order on the OEM front driver side brake line til mid November and short supply of the opposite side brake line the crew at Funk E Built repaired my damaged brake lines. I’m still searching to replace those repaired brake lines as I know this is a temporary solution. I’m thankful for the resourcefulness and expertise of the mechanics over at Funk E Built. They know how to repair and modify WRXs. I highly recommend Funk E Built for repairs and modifications on your WRX (not so much for the two repair shops I mentioned earlier in FoCo).

I have appreciated the honesty and quick service. We take our personal and work vehicles and they don't fix them well they educate you. They have left broken parts out to show me why they had to be replaced and how they work. I really appreciated the knowledge on our Subaru! I would give more stars if I could.

I have known The Funk E Built crew for YEARS now! Started off with a bunch of guys building cars at home to race and have fun. That evolved into the FASTEST Subaru in Colorado! I have bought many parts from them because they have great pricing, customer service with a smile, a clean shop, the knowledge to help me make the correct decision on a part purchase, and are the experts on installation! It doesn't matter if you're wanting to build your Subaru to +1000hp or just in for a check up and oil change, they will always be glad to help and treat you right.

5+++ stars. Erik, James, and Ryan are amazing. My 2013 WRX got rod knock, and through friend I was recommended this shop. They completely rebuilt my motor and did an absolutely outstanding job. Thoroughly discussed details of the built with me and kept me 100% updated on everything during the build and had my car back to me in no time! Since the motor build they have always been available to answer any questions I had. I have not had any issues with the new motor and have since been back for multiple aftermarket parts and installations of those parts. These guys are so intelligent, respectful, and compassionate. They work incredibly hard to make their customers 100% satisfied and I have never left their shop with anything but a smile on my face. I wouldn't take my car to any other shop. 1000% recommend them. AMAZING people and AMAZING service.

The guys over at Funk E Built are amazing. I got the run around from a few shops when I first bought my car. It was more screwed up than I had ever imagined based on how the dealer sold it to me. They were able to fix it up to the point where it was drivable. My car sat in other shops for months. Funk E Built had me running in a couple days. Not only that but I just called with check engine light issues and Ryan told me A) how to fix it myself or B) that they could do it and for how much. Most shops would just tell you to bring it in. Thank you!
