New Magnus Cast Manifold installed

Marco didn't make me promise not to take pictures and show it off so I figured "what the hell, lets get some pictures out there for the EvoM community". I am probably going to get booted in the head next I see him but oh well.

Enjoy all! It's Magnus's new Cast Intake Manifold. I can tell you its a damn fine piece . It's attached to a stock throttle body with an adapter plate as the manifold is really meant for bigger throttle bodies but a stock TB fits just fight with the plate.

Ignore the liberal use of wireties. I'll be swapping and cleaning the wiring and vac line routing up this weekend.

I dont suppose you have any pics of the intake manifold before you installed it? How much did it set you back and when is the official release of the manifold?

I wish I could have been there to help with the install and dyno session. This manifold is awesome, I have been psyched since I saw the prototype a year ago.

I'm so happy this is finally out I should have one soon enough.




P.S. I'm bummed cause I also missed sushi.

I didn't have my camera with me unfortunately. I'll see what I can do about getting some clearer pictures for you on the car. Don't know for sure when it will be released, that's up to Marco. I won't comment on the cost until its released.

I just received a couple for some customer cars. Needless to say any complaints about the old ones don't apply here, I have not seen a better piece since the Honda JG edelbrock manifolds. Here are some pics. Hope Marco doesn't mind.







DOS MONOS!!!!!



Whats up giant plenum! MAGNUS, Power you can feel!, literally :P



Nines or bust :P

I was there for the install, without a slim battery available we had to quickly make something so that we could run the car and get it on the dyno. I don't want to comment on the dyno numbers, i'll let Sean or Marco, but I will say that on an overall stock EVO IX it made more power than the previous intake manifold.
