Apparently Magnacharger has laid off Brian Zacuto. Brian was the main man in sales and marketing and was a great help to me when I bought my Magnacharger. It appears he has gone into business for himself, can not wait to see what he is going to offer?

That would be cool if there was a supercharger superstore. Kinda like a wallmart for blowers.

I will take care of that. I never could tell everyone the details how well he took care of me when buying mine but he was great.

Thanks for the invite, and thank you for all of the kind words. Leaving Magnuson was one of the hardest things I EVER had to do B)

Yes its true, I am a free agent now My relationship with Magnuson is still strong, actually better than ever! I will be here to help you guys with any and all of your questions, problems, and hopefully new supercharger purchases. My business will be focused on Magnuson at the core as it is one of the best supercharger systems available on the market today.

Please feel free to call, email, PM, or just post up.

Sweet! Glad to see you guys here.

So my first question to Brian. Can I run methanol injection through this Maggie? Magnuson's official response is not to put anything through the blower...but what's the real skinny?

Anybody want to send me a couple pieces of a coated rotor to soak in Methanol solutions of varying ratios to water to see what really happens? I can mail the pieces back after the experiment.

The "Official" response from me about meth will be the same. It WILL eat the coating off of the rotors, wash out the bearings and pit the rotor housing. I would suggest a fogger AFTER the blower Tell Eric he could be the first

Meth is just like a drug, it eats your teeth, frys your brain, and costs you ALLOT of money.

Congrats on the new venture! Can you give any more details on what you will be doing? Will you simply be selling blowers. I can see a nice niche for someone that specialized in the after blower aftermarket. As in: "OK I got a nice SC, what now?" I am sure there are ways out there to optimize these units which have always been custom that could be a nice little market. I know some guys like Cam always had cool ideas, but he never had any marketing except word of mouth. I know there is lots of stuff out there.
