Modern Automotive Performance

Our Story Our humble background started out with a group of friends in high school. Each of them had different automotive inspirations, but they were all brought together by building and modifying their cars, constantly pushing them to be faster. Among the group of friends, a stand out combination began to take shape. Chris Carey soon found himself at the wheel of a 4G63T turbocharged Mitsubishi with Kyle Nelson providing the expertise to build, maintain and push the powerplant further than conventionally possible. With Kyle constantly under the hood, Chris developed a skill for locating hard to find and desirable parts. Several seasons later, the two partners had developed a reputation for making smaller turbo charged vehicles extremely powerful and very fast. With success came experience and over those first years, the realization of their frustrations they felt from the industry they loved began to form an idea. Suppliers and vendors were slow to reply and would often not answer their phones. Tracking requests would go unacknowledged and project planning was in a constant state of disarray as waiting for packages without notice became normal. Customer service in the industry was lacking and it was from that spark of defiance, an inspiration took place. MAPerformance was born in the summer of 2006 with no customer base, no formal business plan, and no corporate support. Just two friends committed to enhancing the customer experience through fair pricing, comprehensive offerings, and expert advice from passionate enthusiasts that honestly want to help.
