b00st3d Posted April 7, 2004 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2004 Yeah, I haven't spoken to Chad for a few days but it should be there by now. ;D Another group buy will be organized once the current one is fully completed and everyone has their manifolds.

mrdodge01 Posted April 12, 2004 Report Share Posted April 12, 2004 I know this is a little late to be asking, but after the modifications are made to these magna intakes, will it still be possible to bolt them up to the 2nd gen magna heads? With the greater flow capability of the intake and mpi, I think that would be the best way to take advantage of the extra flow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cudabnu Posted April 12, 2004 Report Share Posted April 12, 2004 I believe you could just have Chad NOT do the rear waterjacket mod, and leave the opening size as is. I know this is a little late to be asking, but after the modifications are made to these magna intakes, will it still be possible to bolt them up to the 2nd gen magna heads?

jr_ss Posted April 21, 2004 Report Share Posted April 21, 2004 Chad just looking for another update, how are the manifolds coming? When do you think the first ones will go out? Glenn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeff_87tsi Posted April 21, 2004 Report Share Posted April 21, 2004 I am in need of a magna now, got my engine torn down and rebuilding, chad any chance of another GP here.. need to get the car together in time for PF jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b00st3d Posted April 21, 2004 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2004 I wanted to wait for everyone to receive their manifolds before I started another GP. So, if there was another GP in say 2 week, who would be interested? ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b00st3d Posted April 22, 2004 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2004 Chad has just emailed me, informing me 3/4 of the manifolds are done.. however, the gaskets are for TR!! The idiots at the store I got them at got the wrong ones.. it's partially my fault however, because I should of double-checked them against the TP manifolds. I just assumed they would of gotten the correct ones cos I not only specified TP, but I also said the years they were made, and that it is the oldest shape magna. > > I will order some more tomorrow and actually take a manifold there and show them so this time they don't stuff it up. It will take a couple of days to get them sent to the local store, then I will send them off ASAP - probably get there late next week or early the week after. > Apologies to everyone - I should of checked they were the correct gaskets :/ I'll try and organize something with Chad so that he sends out the manifold packages right away, so everyone can trial fit and set everything up on them, and then send out the gaskets by themselves as soon as he gets them.

jr_ss Posted April 24, 2004 Report Share Posted April 24, 2004 Boosted, do you think you could pick me up a cap and rotor for the Magna distributor and I'll use your paypal account to pay you for those items? I am having trouble finding places that can get them here in the states and I figured you had to send one more package anyways so could you help me out, please let me know how much it is going to run, and where I can make payment at. Thanks. Glenn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJ_Lazarek Posted May 2, 2004 Report Share Posted May 2, 2004 I also need a mgana intake ASAP. Can you make one without the group purchace for more money, please... DJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
substock Posted May 3, 2004 Report Share Posted May 3, 2004 i'd also like to know when the next gp is. i'd be interested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b00st3d Posted May 3, 2004 Author Report Share Posted May 3, 2004 I'll reply tomorrow with some details about the next GP. ;D BTW, Any interest in a *TR* manifold GP? The manifold is physically bigger and appears much better flowing than the TP. I would say these would be roughly $470US Complete modded, so $100 more than a TP.

b00st3d Posted May 5, 2004 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2004 OK, Good and bad news.  :-[ Bad news is TP manifold GP won't be going ahead for a while... at least 6 weeks... I have 3 sources now and between them all they still don't have enough for a GP. Good news is TR manifold GP can be set up shortly.. I can get my hands on a *lot* of these. Chad is modding one for a private buyer soon, so once that is done, he will give me a price on modding those.. It apparently requires a fair bit more work due to the edge of the manifold hitting the brake booster. As I said, I suspect the total cost will be about $100 more than the TP package (due to higher modification costs and higher postage as it is significantly larger than the TP). Also, the gasket package for the first GP is going to be sent off either tomorrow or friday. The next GP will go a lot smoother than this one.. Since this was the first one, there were some mess-ups and things therefore took longer than they should have. The next GP will be much quicker.

jr_ss Posted May 6, 2004 Report Share Posted May 6, 2004 Chad all I have to say is thank you for doing the GP, you too Trent. The intake is absolutely beautiful. I just recieved mine like 30 mins ago and I already have my 70MM Tb bolted to it. Can't wait to get the car running. Thanks again guys and everyone involved.
