Evo Dynamics Back on our Own Again!

well after a brief attempt at working with AWD tuning, we decided to move back out and work on our own again.

we moved our stuff into a nice new shop near our first shop on business 121.

the new address is:
911 business 121 suite 103
lewisville, tx 75057

we are still getting set up as we just finished unloaded the last uhaul last night, but we should be good to go within a week.

Josh will be working with us full time still, so we will have much better hours for those who didn't like the late nights.

we will also be working on a bunch of things for the community, like a monthly tech meet where we will cover technical aspects of our cars. we already would like to have one to explain how a turbo works, sizing them, and what it actually does to the air. i would also like to have one covering E85, its benefits, and why we run it in our fuel tanks


as we get settled into the shop more we have a bunch of other stuff we will announce that i'm sure everyone will like

i'll try to get some pictures of it today (its a huge mess right now), but some sweet features are an awsome office with AC, shop floor has heat and AC, and a clean room for building engines.

Sounds great is it bigger than the first shop in lewisville u guys had? Also how many cars did y'all have to tow over? There was a ton when I dropped my eclipse off that alone would have took a day or two to do

Cool. Plan on me scheduling soon for that fuel pump and high-boost tune so I can rock the BSP world. ;-)

here are the pictures of the place, and its still a mess inside

the outside of the building has HUGE insulated motorized doors which is nice.


the left side of the shop is where we will be putting the lifts once we are ready for them:



the right side will be storage for cars, parts, shelves, and possibly the corner will be made into the fab area for welding and such...


only have one rack up, but its got 10 transmissions already



and the really sweet part, it has a room sealed from the main room with a vent outside, for building engines. its our clean room for assembly. we will be adding steel work benches and some engine stands cause its going to be busy here with dales, dannys and daniels engines all sitting on the floor waiting to be assembled now



there is an office with 2 rooms, and we will get pics of those as we add stuff to them. right now they are empty

Looking good Kevin, should be plenty of space for the time being. Moving is a PAIN.
