P.S.P.-Magnum Powers dyno results are in!
On the dyno with my unported eaton,no electric fan,waterpump i was at 422hp and 492ft lb torque.That was also with the stock upper,8lb lower and 20 degrees timing on race gas.So from those #s i would say 80hp gains should be easy.
so
Looking at his graphs, you can see the HUGE gain in hp over 3700 rpms. Power stays up and does not drop off. Charles was right about the MP being much more efficient at high rpms. Now you can see that it IS lower in torque at lower rpms, but it still makes more overall torque, which seems to have shifted to the mid rpm band. The huge gain in HP should definitely make the truck a ton faster, regardless of the small torue drop down low.
In taking with Charles at MP the past few weeks, he has stressed that this blower is meant to be SPUN. Jason'a combo of the 2.7 upper and 8lb lower, is just the BEGINNING of this blower's sweet spot. I think with even more rpm, the slight torque loss would dissapear and even more hp would be made. I can easily see why some people have poor results when putting this unit on trucks with much less pulley. It just doesn't like to work that slow. But spin it up, and it shines, and seen in our results.
Nice numbers too!!!
Rob=good to see u again today,looking foward to lots of racing with u this upcomming season.Thanx for the pics.
Josh=I'll see you tommorow,I'm sure we can work something out with my eaton.I'd like to see it go to someone i know.Peace.

Following up on what someone else asked. I would asume the MP blower is best suited for a built motor that can handle the higher boost from being spun fster? I would also assume a stock motor that can't handle the high boost and power would be a waste of money overall as benefits would be minimal?
I hope that our testing has answered lots of questions about the Magnum Powers. It DOES work, it just needs the right tuning and combination of parts to do it's job. It's no doubt better than a ported Eaton, but it needs to be spun hard. We will be selling them, and I hope to do lots more R&D on other combinations.
We'll do a real before and after test and see how the MP performs.

sorry for the rant but. This blower will work on some combinations but doen't be coming on here and trying to say our test was not real and we didn't have th eright combination of parts or our tune was not good.
Josh
hmmm
well now we have 2 tuners saying it does work, and one saying it doesn't.........
we need more proof
I think the best proof would be on a stock block , bolt on truck. Run the ported, then the mp and see what the results are.
Most guys with built motors are gonna go the KB route, at least that's what the consensus on the boards seems to be.

What I said on your thread, was that I had a unit coming, and would be doing our own testing. That's it. I never said anything about what Johnny did, and I never said anything about that I'd get better results.
I also could care less about what testing other tuners did. They have their tests, I have mine. I have certain ways of doing things that I believe to be the best and proper way. I have no idea how other tuners do their testing, so until I see the results myself in person, other people's testing means nothing to me.
In my test, I took a truck, did a bunch of stuff, and reported everything here in this post. What the public wants to make of my results is up to them. If you have the "same combo" and didn't see these results, I can't really comment on that because I didn't do the work.

All I have to say is with My combination of parts and Johnny's tune, very conservative and with quite a bit less timing than you tested with, we smoked your test with my Apten blower. It seems that the two trucks tested (mine and your customers) were both built lower ends and had cams and head work.

The only application I can see the MP being a good choice in is this exact scenario described here. Built block, ported heads, and pullied up, the MP really shows where it belongs. It might not turn quite the numbers a KB would on the same truck, but for 1/2 the price, it's a very good choice.
From reading this thread:
While the MP is safe to run on a stock block, don't expect to see SUBSTANTIAL gains. From reading this thread it appears that the MP delivers maximum performance when spun the fastest. Meaning a 8# or higher lower pulley. If that is the case, it is not wise to put a 8# lower on a Stock block and perhaps that is where the difference in results come from.
Lets not forget that Suavy had a 16# lower pulley and spun the cr@p out of the MP blower and it held strong.
So just because there is a difference in different tests, those differences can be attributed to just that.... DIFFERENT TESTS.
Where the Eaton starts to drop off the MP comes to life and delivers more and more power.
I wish to thank ALL tuners for thier input in testing the MP.
Here it seems the scientific method was tested as much as possible (Mr. Skelton would be proud)
Using the same truck, tune, dyno and weather conditions and only swapping the bower.

i have run my magnum with a 6 and a 8lb lower
and i had a difrence in ET by only 0.030 in the quarter on the same day.
one thing people forget is the way the magnum generates the boost you can run more boost safely
the same way the racetested nitrous controler works
in the beginning of the run or lower rpm's you get less boost
when you are at the top of the rpm's you get more boost
