Magnus vs Driven Innovation intake test
I don't think it's impossible someone will create a manifold that has better top end than the stock ported, it might never come; but it's not impossible. Is it really a true split pulse manifold anyway? (better for a twinscroll turbo vs a single ?)

New update
UPDATE Graph with Stock intake vs Magnus vs Driven Innovations

Stock intake green line
Magnus intake Red line
Driven Innovations Blue line
I think with this graph everybody are going to see the complete results, I just arrive from the dyno and decide to print the 3 graph.
No more guessing.
The result against the stock manifold demonstrate that both units are great products, on my taste I prefer the Driven Innovations because the car have more area under the curve and more usable power but both unit are great products.

I dont know anything about lucas's testing so i cant comment.. But dont you think its hard to beleive any large Plenum, short runner manifold is going to give better low end than a stock ported??? Again i am no engineer but with common sense id like to think there is no MAGIC manifold with huge plenum and short runners that will go against logical thinking.. I am no engineer but i research a lot..

I've said about 50 times at this point, NOTHING outperforms the stock intake ported or not ported, under 5500 rpm. In that range you have to look for the intake with the least loss.
These results look very similar to the testing I did. Looking at the chart, for some reason the stock intake testing wasn't started until about 400 rpm later, had it been started sooner I'd expect to see the stock intake with more gains from 3000-5500 rather than just that small area of gains from 4400-5500.

Boost plot, AFR, and ignition timing log please.

I don't blame you man.. you got to defend your purchase. I would too!

But it's deffo looking like DI is king of the hill right now. Norris runs them, and many others.
