    The beginings of....

    Hey yall.. I've been looking into opening my own shop for a couple years now... But financially it's no feasable at this time, with so much other stuff going on.. But I've decided I've got to do something to get the ball rolling.. So here's my start..

    Introducing Divine Interventions Autosports
    Eventually I want to widen the scope of services performed to be a "pimp my ride" type shop..
    But for now.. I'm offering
    Port and polish
    Gasket matching of intake and exhaust manifolds
    Turbo Porting
    Polishing Valve covers and other metal bits and goodies

    Here are some pages and adds i've designed so far..









    Please Leave feedback and or interest, Questions, comments and concerns..
    Let anyone that my be interested in this service know please.. This is the first official posting for DIA.. I figure out of all the forums I post on, i'm known the best here, so I could trust the feedback I get.. I plan to post on craigslist soon, and also make a couple "special priced" ebay auctions..
    Thanx for looking

    No.. No flowbench.. Eventually I plan to build one.. but that comes down the road.. But that will also inflate the price, as each job will be more involved and take longer.. Right now I'm offering this service as an alternative to the super expensive shops out there.. Mainly my target customers are budget builders and everyday tuners who don't have the coin to drop on a "commercial port and polish"

    At the current time I am not able to do any type of valve work ie, regular valve jobs, multi-angle valve jobs, larger seats or seat replacements, valve guides.. That is why there is a contract every customer must sign before work is done.. Stating that they understand that it is a requirement that they have the head/heads reconditioned after the port and polish.. I will not work on them if they've already been reconditioned..

    During the porting the seats are sometimes nicked or roughed up.. 95% of the time you can just re-lap the valves in, But since it's already apart you might as well git r dun right...

    What size brand and model turbo?.. Intake and exhaust?.. PM me with the specifics please...

    What exactly are you looking for?..
    At the current time the only thing I will do for valves is polish them..
    But they also require being reconditioned after the polishing process..

    As far as the manifold goes.. With what I have available to me at the moment, it would be rather crude looking, and more on the unattractive side.. HOWEVER, it would function 100%, it just wouldn't look good..
    So at the current time I'll have to say no on the turbo manifold.. When I get the right equipment it will be no problem to fab, one up..

    As a matter of fact, that gets me a little excited! lol.. Im gonna look into making some one off custom manifolds for A20s.. I better start doing more manifold research!!
