Behind the scenes at MAPerformance (pics updated often)
 
Wow we've been insanely busy the last few weeks hosting multiple events, so our marketing team has been overloaded.

So no more excuses here are a couple pics for you guys.



1st up is this Evo getting a full build including custom T3 manifold and turbo setup.

2nd up is our Captain sitting at the helm. I want his monitor setup at my desk, I only have 2 lol.

I think he's having a conversation with a "Prime" candidate for a custom engine build.

Tell Chris that monitor setup isn't very ergonomic. :)

I think I was sitting there when the guy dropped that evo off. I personally love red Evo's.

Anyway moving on to today.

Did you guys give the FD a paint job? The paint looks extra shiney in that pic.

It got fresh paint last season. Then it got damaged in the tow rig and now needs fresh paint again :(

Here's a customers SRT-4 getting a long list of goodies. A new MAP built 2.4, a new tranny, exhaust, suspension, etc etc etc. From big to small, we do it all.

It takes some big meats to get a car in the 8's. These bad boys lay the HP to the pavement.

Just for size reference I threw a 17 inch SRT-4 wheel next to these things.

In here today we had this built 2.0l making 500+HP.

Jordan had this bad boy tuned and on the street in no time!!!

Damn I love my job! Getting to be around these cars is making my wallet get itchy. I need MOAR POWER MEOW!

Probably the cleanest 87' RX-7 you will see on the road today. The reflection on the hood speaks wonders for this thing.

I should have grabbed a pic of the inside, the interior was just as clean. Still rocking the rotary as well.

Simply immaculate!

This is one bad GTO.
427, balls out, engine bay was super clean, fuel cell in the trunk, slicks and skinnies. This thing means business. I had really hoped to see this thing make a pull on spray, but it wasn't in the trunk lol.

I saw the N2O lines under the hood, popped the trunk and found this. Still picture worthy if you ask me.

You don't see too many late model GTO's with this kind of performance upgrades!

Here is a pic of one of our Ram Horn exhaust manifolds going on a Honda B-series engine.

I just think this thing looks cool as hell! The welding is top of the line as you can see.

Here is a cool project car. The owner just needed our fab guys to put him together a
custom crossover with a hypergate 45.


This is a fully built LS1 car, PTE-76, Built T-56, 9 inch rear, on E85.

Can't wait to see it run.

You are looking for the same manifold with a Tial gate? I do not have any pictures of that at this time.

Not a head we see very often, but as you know we do it all.

Would be cool to see lots more in the future.
I know we've been seeing quite a few rides in here with these under their hoods lately!

Anyone wanna take a shot and tell me what engine/s this belongs on?

I wonder how vast everyones automotive knowledge really is?

So lets find out!

Couple goodies going in a 2G DSM w/ a 6 bolt conversion. Should make for some good power!
