Default Magnus Intake

Ok i see the maguns intake looking sweet has anyone used it in a street car? I know CFT and a few others use it. But i would like to hear from the normal Guy/Girl who has one. I am currently using An old school matched ported S2 and make power all the way to 9.5k no problem. Was already to go Victor X till i read some post. Really thinking going Maguns if i can improve all around. I know the x makes power but can anyone honestly compare it to the Magnus. It seems the magnus will give you mid and top end gains but no dyno sheet from anyone to prove it.

There’s a comparison of the jg vs. the Magnus on an all motor car http://www.magnusmotorsports.com/intakemanifolds/honda.htm

I'd love to see a comparison on a turbo car though..... I'm sure the Magnus would have good gains. There are a few guys on here running them with good results, hopefully they'll chime in.

Yes we need to see it on a Turbo car compared to the X. Wonder why there is not a test on it out there "hmmm""

Just hope there not a 700 to 800 whp monster not to many of us out there running the set up. Most of us are between 400 and 600 whp but

Search please. It was compared to the Victor X on a boosted car, but this manifold was never designed for a street car. From what I understand it was meant to be a race only piece. Look in the "New Product" thread for more info

Street mostly. I hit the track now and then but not very often. These are def not race only manifolds.

That's good to hear going try this x since everyone swears by it. If im not happy maybe ill try the magnus. But since my car screams power through 9500k i think it should be a good move from the old Sk2
