Since day one, I’ve been hooked on the adrenaline of racing and the power of performance machines. What started as a love for fast cars quickly turned into a lifelong journey of building, tuning, and pushing engines beyond their limits.

I don’t just work on cars—I engineer them for maximum output and reliability. From street cars to track beasts, every build gets the same dedication and attention to detail. My focus has always been to help drivers experience the full potential of their vehicles, whether that means blistering speed, smooth handling, or consistent power on race day.
