The Team Behind The Torch
Marcus Chen
Lead Fabricator & Founder
Been wrenching since I was 14, started with my dad's old Civic. Went to trade school, worked at a couple dealerships, hated the assembly-line vibe. This place is what I wish existed when I was starting out - somewhere that actually gives a damn about the craft.
Riley Thompson
Performance Tuning Specialist
Dyno queen, engine whisperer, whatever you wanna call it. I've been dialing in ECUs for 8 years and there's still new stuff to learn every week. Got my start in rally racing - those machines taught me real quick what proper tuning means.
Jamal Foster
Diagnostic & Electrical Guru
If it's got wires, I can figure it out. Modern cars are basically computers on wheels, and most shops just throw parts at problems. I actually dig into the data, find the real issue. Saved customers thousands by not following the "replace everything" playbook.
Sofia Rodriguez
Suspension & Alignment Tech
Came from the drift scene where suspension setup is everything. You can have all the power in the world, but if your car doesn't plant right, you're just spinning tires. I make sure the rubber meets the road properly every single time.
Credentials & Recognition
ASE Master Certified
All techs hold multiple ASE certs. Not because we had to, but because we wanted to prove we know our stuff.
Dynojet Certified
Factory-trained on dyno operation and tuning. We've got the data to back up every power claim.
CWB Certified Welders
Canadian Welding Bureau certified. Your custom exhaust isn't gonna fall off mid-corner, guaranteed.
Vancouver's Choice 2024
Best Performance Shop voted by actual customers. That one actually means something to us.
Ongoing Factory Training
Regular courses with BMW, Audi, and aftermarket manufacturers. Cars change, we keep up.
BC Environmental Compliance
Proper disposal of fluids and materials. We care about more than just the cars.
