I dont know about Micks. Seen his work. Im not going in detail on here. Sure he knows how to get nice power out of them, but reliably, not quite sure. I know someone that has had problems with his mitsu with him.

Meek Automotive is your best go for all your mitsu needs. He has vast knowledge on galant vr4's.

Ive only ever spoke to Chris Meek over the phone about ordering parts but he was great, he jumped on the phone coz i had a question and even went on to give me a few tips for my setup.
Does seem to know them very well.
Id give him a thumbs up.

I can vouch for Mick, he knowes his sh*t. The only drama i've ever seen is when ppl want to cut corners against his recommendation.

I've been dealing with him for over 3 years now and making 300kw atw all that time, including full track days and plenty of runs down the strip. But each to their own.

What specifically are you looking to do Nate?

You may be right with what you say, I've never dealt with Micks myself, only going off a couple of my mates experiences with them....

This is very true, but the car i know took every recommendation for his car, and 2 things went wrong. Id rather not get into detail as this is not the area to discuss this sort of issues. Lets leave it at that, as i hate s@#t fights.

Mick does know how to get some good power from 4G63's thats for sure... so as a tuner he's great! I've also seen what $15,000 drive in and drive out got one of the local boys and much the same as Joey just mentioned, things could have been done a little better.
