Mags aren't pressure rated so putting them under additional load would shorten their life shouldn't it? I killed a mag 18 in pretty short time using on a becket skimmer. Personally, I'd get baffles or upgrade the sump like you said. Another trick I use to cut down on micro bubbles is placing LR rubble around my return pump. Then I place my carbon bag on top of that.
