Because there is not a huge market for this, they are ordered and Magnuson, makes it and ships it to the dealer. It is not cost effective to have these 'sitting on the shelf' type inventory. It's all about 'J I T' "Just in Time" inventory.
You might find a forum member who has one.
Would this price include the "tune" that Magnuson sends with their kit? Or is a dyno tune a better way to go? Since I think it might be a little out of my league to install one of these suckers (if I ever actually buy one), how many hours do you figure install takes? I've seen lots of people say they're done install in a day ... so 8 hours shop time? While I'm saving my $$ maybe I'll research the install and save the 8 hours of labour costs and do it myself.
Cool. Thanks guys! I just called the number on their website. Got the VM so we'll see what pricing they've got. If anyone can PM me a ballpark I would appreciate it. Thanks!

I think one member had it done for around $500 + whatever the tune cost. I'm sure mose shops would charge a lot more. It's many many steps to install, but none are very hard and you should only need to buy a few tools that you don't already have. Check my "mega" Maggie install thread in the FAQ sticky.
The Magnuson tune is standard with a new kit. A propper dyno tune would be better but they're expensive. You'll need a very good tuner that knows injector tables and is willing to take a lot of time to do it right. IMO it's not worth the money for a dyno tune until you get more mods. If anything see if they'll do just a WOT tune. That's quick, easy and shouldn't be too expensive. It's the only place my Magnuson tune was really laking.
Do you guys have a website or anything? Google didn't give me much. I'm not in the Maggie market right now, but I guarantee you that I will be down the road.
