Magden system

Does any one have the Magden system installed on their car? If you can you please tell me if you like it and is worth the bucks? Welcome to Magden

Seems that Magden has stopped selling an outright bolt-in system, and focusing solely on the software, allowing others to step in and do the final step to each vehicle..

Haven't touched it, but everything I see looks bad ***..

When supercharging my friends Audi RS4, we debated for a while between this and the HKS Camp2 system. They both have pros and cons and visually there are more GUI's available for the magden, but having the ability to link into a vpro system if you went standalone is a big plus for the Camp2 system and it still looks cool and reads alot of data.

You cant go wrong with either one. We ended up going with the Camp2 system.

I remember looking at that a couple months ago, its pretty cool and Id love to do it in my cubby but the screen and the program came out pretty expensive. But I think its in the right direction if they can bring the price down.

I saw the HKS Camp II in person on JB-370z car and it was very very nice, probably what I would get if I am going boost or want that system setup.
