Hey I am curious if the calculator I used was correct:
I used This Method and Product to make my magnesium
This is Recipe 1 from bulk reef supply
5 level cups of Magnesium Chloride and 3 level cupfuls of Magnesium Sulfate From BULK REEF SUPPLY
But do I really need 1959.6 ml; 66.2 fl oz; 391.9 tsp ?
to raise magnesium from 1080 to 1350?
Thank You

You left out how many gallons you are treating. Pretty important with this question but yes you will use a ton of mag to raise the tank.
MY 360 took more then half a 5 gallon bucket of mag to raise from 1100-1500
Try to keep the raise within 100 points per 24h

Good advice above. When I do dose, it takes a lot for a very little raise in value at least in my tanks.

My tank has maybe 90-100g of water volume, hope that helps.. Is that still accurate?

Given this info, yes that sounds accurate.

Well I just did a 10g water change, before I dosed. I will add accordingly tomorrow after testing. I think this water changed probably brought it up a little due to the salt. so I dont have to waste as much now correct?
