Dyno'd the Magnum.

I bought mine used, so it doesnt matter if it was made in the USA. This argument is not valid for many reasons. Do you know how many parts on GM, Mopar and Ford made cars are made out of the USA? Sure eddy is made in the USA, but does not mean it is better. Im yet to see anyone see gains going from either to the other. Until then, they both have crappy issues with some of the intakes that come out, not all. I would be willing to when I finish the car and get it down to where I live now, dyno the current setup and then switch to the Eddy used or not if someone wants to help chip in or something for the intake or dyno time and settle this once and for all.

Hate to break it to you but it does matter that it came from China, the metallurgy is different, typically it has a lot more impurities in it. (Yes there are some bad eddy intakes out there)
It also doesn't matter if you bought it used or not someone still sent there money over there.

Yes new cars have lots of parts made in other countries, I also don't happen to own anything newer then my '79 Aspen which incidentally was still made in the USA.
Edit: Also to me made in Canada is just as good as made in USA.

Here yha go where cars are made http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2009/06/19/automobiles/20090619-auto-plants-4.html

I too would like to see a direct comparison and would be willing to do it myself if someone donated (for use, not to keep) a crosswind and dyno time, but for now I will just stick with what is in my opinion a better built unit.
