About
Dreams to Reality Performance is a small shop with big intentions. Started like so many shops do in a garage with hopes and dreams to have a real custom shop. Well, like for my clients, my dream is a reality. My name is Kevin Kreisa and I want to welcome you to my website. My intent is to build and create what my clients dream up. Some of my projects include a twin turbo Corrado, twin engine the same, multiple 1.8t VW swaps, 16v turbo builds, AWD conversion on Mk2 chassis, show car builds etc. Just to name a few. My background is from the US Navy as a Naval Nuclear Welder (NEC code 4956) were I spent ten years earning the grade of E6 (HT1). In that time I learned much about sheet metal fabrication, pipe fitting and fabrication, machining and other useful skills not normally found in automotive shops. Upon leaving the Navy I utilized my other skills to obtain work as a technician in various European auto repair shops. Not content with the way those shops were ran, I decided that my destiny was to open up my own. After going back into welding and playing with my own personal projects I eventually started Dreams To Reality Performance (or commonly called DTR Performance).
I often have been heard saying that “I do what my clients can’t” in description of what I do. Although I am mainly known for doing very custom work, I do plenty of maintenance. Not all of my clients have custom rides. So whether it is making a custom turbo system for your car or just changing the oil, I do what I can! I hope that I can be of service to whomever enters the shop!
