my first megaminx solve with official scramble: 8:52.381 (wow it takes me a while DX)

That's pretty much where I was just a couple months ago. I haven't practiced an insane amount, just 60-70 timed solves actually. I'm not fast, but fairly consistently under 5:00, anyway. Keep at it. Megaminx is one where it seems practice makes much more difference than learning algs. One thing that's helped me is abandoning color neutrality for megaminx, so you're always looking for the same colored pieces.
