We've actually coated 2 of the Buschur intake manifolds, great manifolds.
Both of these Evos from Texas run the Buschur intake manifold, one of them being the first evo from Texas to hit 9 seconds in the 1/4 mile.

If you would like more information pm "Nissan2evo", he can answer all your questions on the Buschur intake manifolds:

Something to consider is the resistance to potential weld failure to be had with a cast mani whether modified stock, AMS, or Magnus.

It will honestly be a simple modification but yes I understand as you must weigh all concerns when contemplating the best part for you and your application.

To clarify I am not saying that any of the mention sheet metal manifolds are prone to weld failures. Welds from the best fabicators out there can fatigue over time.

I was running my ETS piping and I didn't have to cut it to make it work.

The AMS F1 went on very easy for me, didn't have to do any cutting and they provide everything needed for the install. This was one of the main reasons why I went with it.. I didn't want to run in any issues when installing the manifold in my garage after work as its my daily driver car.

Honestly I was looking at a couple threads today about IM's and I will actually have to vote for the AMS FI-1.

In BigValleys test the DI made more midrange than the Magnus with the same top end.

In Iveys test the AMS FI-1 beat the DI and the WilsonV2(similar to MAP's/Milspec ported manifold) by a good bit.

Also like others have said, the AMS keeps the stock TB position so no more $$ for a new UICP. Although a lot of people seem to be very very happy with the Magnus. It's really up to you.
