Default Magnus Intake for my SPWD build

Well I arrived home today to find that I have received my Magnus SMIM for my build. The manifold is awesome. It looks really good and the quality is top notch. It has 4 vacuum ports on the back of it to keep all of the ugly vacuum lines out of site. I am really impressed with it so far. I cant wait to get this car together and see what it makes, I am sure I wont be disappointed.

What's the setup that this is going on? Also, has anyone tested one of these against Edelbrock/Full-Race/Etc? It would be nice to see some back to back test forsure.

Regardless it has the Bling factor!

I dont remember which manifold they had before, but CFT picked up power with it on one of their SPWD cars.

Sounds like a promising build. Who will be tuning the car, and will it be ready for the 2009 CSCS season?

As for tuning, I am thinking the closest place would be Magnus. I have heard he is good with the AEM. Yes the car should be ready for the 2009 season.

Sick IM, quality stuff.

x2 Edelbrock vs. Magnus would be sick

I think magnus would have the edge, with those ballin velocity stacks.

just saw that Magnus did a dyno comp with the 2 manifolds. Edelbrock vs Magnus on ALLMOTOR, and Magnus vs. "Box Style" manifold on BOOST, no magnus vs Edelbrock on BOOST

I have never seen a back to back test with this piece, what does it sell for?

I am surprised more people dont run the hogans piece.

Magnus FTW! The design and quality is definitely up there. CFT makes good power with it and I'll have some test results on my K set up shortly.

does the magnus come with its own fuel rail since it does not have previsions for any of the other honda fuel rails?
