There have been a great deal of independent tests that have shown that the new style magnus makes good power

Paul made over 1000 horse last season on the magnus street manifold

 

Unfortunately this is very true

 

Some that post here love to manipulate words. The sad part is many here believe every thing that they here or read. Marketing here has become very political these days and some would say unethical. Well you know how it goes there is 1 born every minute.

 

thats what test shown in the new d-sport mag.

 

links?

 

^it's called the search button.... There is also a good website to go to...


www.google.com

I hear that site can find stuff pretty easily.

 

Two words...Complete Junk

 

Anyone that is naysaying this manifold actually ever run one personally.

No buddy this or my buddy that. Did YOU personally run it or not. If not you have no grounds for failure rates or power loss, since you base it on second hand information.

Secondly does anyone understand that 1014whp at 55psi on a manifold designed for street use (read 30-35R) actually says something about its weld strength all by itself?

The only people that have had consistent failures also coincidentally use Meth which is highly corrosive to aluminum. There is no other way to put it. You corrode something it weakens and it breaks.

For the record the manifold that will be etched as "1014whp" will be going on my personal Evo for testing. I have no agenda. I do not sell Magnus manifolds directly but I am more than willing to test them.

The thread that everyone keeps referring to and the Dpsort article (oddly enough that contain alot of the same information) also have retractions by both David and DTM (the OP in that case). David changed his statement to the "original" manifold not the current one. Later the manifold that DTM was proven to not be a Magnus as it was. It was either a Chinese, Thai, or Ebay copy labeled as a Magnus and the engineering though similar to a 2G DSM race manifold was never used on an Evo for public use.

 

I will be running one here soon on a mostly bolt-on evo VIII w/ a TME & 272/280 cams, so we will see. We dynoed it the other day and it made 339/341 on 22 psi on 92 pump gas. I will be putting the manifold on, make needed adjustments and not mess w/ boost and see how it does and then turn the boost up. I will more than likley start a thread when I get closer to doing this which will be within 2 weeks. I am doing this test, just b/c of all the controversy that has been up in the air recently.

 

they were discontinued because they would crack on the welds until the new ones were designed and they dont have that problem anymore and they also have a drag manifold as well

 

I am being misquoted in this thread and some of the facts are incorrect.

To clear things up, quickly as I am not getting into this again:

DSport stated quite clearly that the design that was tested was discontinued, it does NOT say Magnus' product line is discontinued. ONLY the intake that was tested.

I also NEVER-EVER have said that Magnus' current intake manifolds do not work. I HAVE NEVER run one, seen one or tested one. The ONLY intake I have ever seen, installed or tested was the original design that has been pictured.

I would think that his new stuff works based on looking at it and comparing it to the other 5 or so I have tested from other manufacturers at this point that did work.

Paul Nelson did NOT run the same intake manifold I tested.

I did NOT have a problem with Marco in 2006 at the shootout or any shootout for that matter. That is something being dreamt up now.

Carry on.

 

David, I agree and tried to say as much. I hope that came out in what I said.

 

Im not sure with happy horse crap came from, but it is utterly untrue.

Sorry to say but Buschur is not the authority to what works and what doesn't. They have their thoughts and theory's and then there is the rest of the world.

As stated many times before... very few have ACTUALLY tested his (magnus's) products with unbiased results. If I ever get a free minute I will finish the testing we began a few weeks ago on his current production manifolds.

So many people have forgotten what Marco has done for this industry and the fact that he sells and manufacturers ALOT more than just Intake manifolds.

 

Don't Worry Dave Buschur Your Big day is coming.

 

Buschur say it's bad, but you know what i run it on my Time Attack evo and we're two time Overall Champion. The Buschur Test was tested on a fully built evo. A lot fo factors come to play. In my shop we have seen 20-36whp gain up top, better throttle response, etc. Look at my Signature, I have run Magnus intake manifold since day one at Redline Time Attack, and i still running it.
