Default Evo's going in to MADevelopments :cool:

Decided to have some mods done to the evo in the way of Autronics etc & i've been told that Mark is one of the NO sorry i mean THE best at this sort of stuff

Had a chat with him today & he seemed like a really top bloke

What sort of dealings have you people had with him? Is his work reliable & whats his after service like (if you have any probs etc)?

Also is there anybody else you'd recomend?

Ive spoken to Kev Atkins about MAD and the work that he has had done there.

I dont think ive ever heard anyone more definate about the fact that they picked the correct tuner!

He really is utterly over the moon with what he has had from Mark.

And his car is truely awesome, and the way he pedals it isnt exactly falling short of testing it hard either i believe he was even a couple of seconds a lap round coombe than Hadland was in his escort?


Ive never heard ANYONE who has actually had dealings with MAD do anything except sing their praises.

Mark I think must be either one of the best tuners in the world or one of the best hypnotists.

My first mod to my RST when I got it many moons ago was a chip and set up from Mark. His attention to making it spot on was outstanding. He and Karl Norris are the only tuners I've seen this attention to detail from.

Attention to detail and doing things properly is what Mark does best....hence why the MAD camp cars always do so well.
