A passion project

Evolution Tuning was born over 20 years ago from automotive engineer and founder Victor Franco Sr.'s passion for furthering the genius of VW engines. The endeavor started small, selling aftermarket parts and developing its first product: The "EVOheatshields" (phenolic spacers designed to block heat soak from the engine’s cylinder head to the earlier aluminum intake manifolds). After a successful introduction of this innovative product, Evolution Tuning turned to focus on studying and developing intake and exhaust systems that mold the engine's character and extract new performance. The journey continues.
