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.

Re: Behind the scenes at MAPerformance (pics updated often)
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.
