Reason why Magnus is the SHlT and BJ is not...

Hi guys i wanted to make this thread because my car has been down waiting on parts when it never needed to. Heres what happened i got my car up at Slick Motorsports in Cleveland (same place that did evodaves) and Matt has not been able to finish the car because i ordered a BJ intake mani. Ordered this mani back in January from Mark From Quantum well BJ never answered his phone and never sent ****... So im like screw it i will get the same intake mani that my dude Jason has, although i wanted to be different so i had Mark Call Magnus, these guys not only hooked me up with their best mani they make with the velocity stacks inside the surge tank and the 75mm tb kit, but they got it there to Matt's shop in 1 ****ing day! FROM CANADA, now if these guys can send a great product in 1 day and BJ doesnt do it for 3+ months for some people, what does that say about you BJ? OK enough said, mani came in today and it is beautiful

I was told last Friday via E-mail from BJ's that my Head and Intake Manifold will be shipping out today and I will receive a tracking number as well. They also mentioned that a lot of old orders would be shipping out over the weekend and beginning of this week.

As of this post I have not received an e-mail from BJ's about my head and intake manifold.

It took me about a month to get my manifold from BJ's I was extremely worried as I sent them a money order next day to speed up the process. They also would not answer my phone calls or emails and always promised it would be shipping out. Well I finally got it after many messages left with them and a few weeks of waiting and I couldn't be happier with it.

well worth the wait.

My buddy has gone through two Magnus intake manifolds. Seems they like to split at the welds on his car for some reason.

I don't like to bash companies, but I have to chime in here as well.

We had ordered and prepaid for FIVE intake manifolds from BJ's probably about a year ago. 2 were Evo intake manifolds (fully loaded with 2nd rail, n20 bungs, etc), 3 Talon/Eclipse manifolds (2 fully loaded, etc).

After maybe 3 months, of unanswered phone calls, 3 mysteriously arrived at our door steps. 2 Talon/Eclipse manifolds (both were bare and had no 2nd rail, etc), and one Evo manifold (which was also bare).

We tried calling again and again. No answer, no returned calls.

Few months down the road we received a call from who I think was either BJ's mother or wife (I can't remember which). She mentioned that she will be taking over our order and will ensure they get shipped out. She also mentioned she would be sending us a couple extra manifolds so that we could stock and sell if someone local needed.

Well, that was maybe 4-5 months ago and we still haven't heard or seen anything from them.
