We aren't going to sugar coat anything for you, our business is here to make money. Any place that tells you they "aren't making any money off you" are straight lieing to you. If a business is not there to make money it will soon be gone. Do you really think this is a goal for a business? The fair prices we charge and money we make goes right back around to bring you new things and to bring innovation to the world of the automotive enthusiest. We charge a fair price for the best service we can offer and not a penny more or a penny less. We will not lower our standards to beat others prices. We are who we are, and you are a customer. You have the choice of who you want to go with. We are here to let you know what we can offer, answer your questions, and give professional advice on whatever it may be. Doesn't matter who you are or who you are a fan boy of. We take care of everyone we can. With that being said heres a few things we have in store for you guysÂ* 8)

At the track we all suffer from the phenomena of Brake Pad Knock Back. If you don't know what this is, you experience it when you go through some corners with relatively high G, when you hit your braking zone and begin to brake, the pedal goes more than 3/4 of the way down before it begins to brake. This usually happens from the hub bending and deflecting the rotor into the pad and pushing the pads and pistons back into the caliper. When you go to push the brake, you have to first set the pads and then it will begin to brake. This is where the extra travel comes from. this has always been a confidence killer for many of us. Usually we correct this with some small pumps on the straight away. However, we at Massimo Power will be testing different permanent solutions to the problem and will post our findings and data. Once we are set on a proper solution we will be ready to offer it for your cars.

We are also working on different rear differential packages for the Evo 8/9 which will start at $299 installed!

If you have any questions or comments please feel free to post or send me a message.

UPDATE: 3/15/12

Well after testing at Buttonwillow this past weekend we are officially ready to offer our own Rear Differential Services. We will have 2 Versions available. Version One will be using the stock re-arranged LSD plates to double the friction surface and give you maximum locking from the diff under acceleration. The Second Version will be Replacing the stock diff plates with a 12 Plate setup giving you even more locking to better power out of turns. Both Versions improve the feel of the car dramatically. As with our own race cars you will need fine tune your suspension set up and alignment etc. to your liking once this is installed. The car will be more tail happy but with proper setup it will be FASTER. Only Available for Evo 8 and 9.

Prices are as follows:

V.1 Rear Differential Upgrade $299.00

V.2 12-Plate Rear Differential Upgrade $499.00

Message me if you have any questions. :)
