I received two intake manifolds today that are to be used on a couple customer cars in the near future. These cast manifolds have been in the works now for about a year and half. I am proud to say that I was able to aid in the development of this part. This manifold has been truly engineered from the ground up. I won’t go into too many details but I will say alot of rapid prototyping and CFD (computaional fluid dynamics) analysis of the design has gone into making the final part. There is one already running around on a certain moderators EVO now. It made more power than the sheet metal intake that Magnus currently makes. This manifold has a 5 liter plenum and is flanged for a 100 mm throttle body but an adapter flange can be used for the stock unit. I am very impressed with the final product it’s about time a properly designed manifold was made for the import world. This is on par with the JG edelbrock units for the Hondas. The only regret I have for this is that I didn’t get to produce a cast intake first when we were in business because we had this in the works as well…then we went the way of the dodo. On to the pictures. ![http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f279/Hybriddon/work/DSC02729.jpg](http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f279/Hybriddon/work/DSC02729.jpg) ![http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f279/Hybriddon/work/DSC02730.jpg](http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f279/Hybriddon/work/DSC02730.jpg) ![http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f279/Hybriddon/work/DSC02733.jpg](http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f279/Hybriddon/work/DSC02733.jpg) DOS MONOS !!! ![http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f279/Hybriddon/work/DSC02734.jpg](http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f279/Hybriddon/work/DSC02734.jpg) Marco gives it a thumbs up…(and he’s in buffalo) ![http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f279/Hybriddon/work/DSC02735.jpg](http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f279/Hybriddon/work/DSC02735.jpg) God damn these things are huge and going to rock the house. ![http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f279/Hybriddon/work/DSC02732.jpg](http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f279/Hybriddon/work/DSC02732.jpg) ---

Sweet!! How much better do they perform over the stocker?? Definitely looks like a well designed piece! ---

I don’t remember the numbers but it made more power than the original sheet metal magnus and that made more than stock… 😉 The only design flaws are: it faces the wrong way and is flanged at the head incorrectly. ---

are these manufactured in St. cAtharines? as i mentioned before, i happened to meet a gentlemen who offered up that he was building the cast version of the manifolds: post 38 [http://www.nyspeed.com/forums/showthread.php?t=43726&highlight=magnus&page=2](http://www.nyspeed.com/forums/showthread.php?t=43726&highlight=magnus&page=2) looks like a solid piece. ---

I just read your post, the sheet metal ones are made in house, the cast ones are outsourced. That might be what he was talking about. Last summer I made a few trips to do fitment tests with a rapid prototype. One was on my birthday, the tooling was developed in the summer time once the design was finished then it has been a run since. ---

indy’s V2 stock ported intake manifold stills gets my vote. performed right on par with sheet metal intake manifolds and retains all emissions. lets see some numbers. whats the price on this? ---
