Double-stacked British intensification — when 'proper' alone just isn't enough to convey the sheer scale of what you're describing. Mega proper turns the dial up to maximum authenticity, taking something already solid and confirming it's the real deal in the most emphatic possible terms.

It describes intensity of authenticity past the point of normal, where the commitment to doing things right becomes its own defining personality trait.
