Reeves' OMNI GLH-R Update!

[turbovanman²]

Actually, i think you were the only one who read it wrong. :P

Nope, Rob did too,

He asked what the myth was. I told him what the myth was. I didn't put my two cents into it at all.

I know its your 2 cents, just make sure we are reading it right.

Sorry but, Your on your own this time bro! lol

You agreed with me,

[Shadow]

You agreed with me,

I agreed that he didn't read the thread very well, and apparently, so did he. Had zero to do with understanding his deffinition of "the myth".

BTW, "the myth" is only going to get worse now............

Why, what did you do? lol

[Reeves]

So if no secrets what the F was your 60's!!!!!??????

Generally mid 1.6's lately.

I raced at Import Face Off this past weekend. Was running 10.5's and 10.6's. A little warmer out, but I'm surprised to have had it slow down that much. But I also had to take more fuel out, so that makes sense that the air wasn't as good.

Was spraying a 50 shot in 4th in the eliminations to try it out once again. Gained zero ET, but went up to 138 to 139 mph!

Also attempted 40 psi boost again....same results....no advantage over 35 psi boost. May change to headstuds once again with some pro advice. Hopefully that will help with the still unexplained overheating. I still think it's the head lifting.

Hey now. I'm gonna close this thread if you guys don't stop mucking it up.




Like I have any authority around here....LOL.

That's some nice mph. Does the drive pressure change a lot from 35-40psi?

If you're going to hit any spray, you have to hit it early in the run to really see ET drops. A 4th gear squirt generally will only get you mph. If you can get it to hook early in the run, you'll see much more of an ET drop.

Awesome work though! That thing is moving!

I saw this and then I did this:

[Shadow]

Next to Warrens (and I don't mean anything neg when I say that!) that is the nicest header I have seen for one of these mtrs!

It actually reminds me of Warrens header when I look at it's design

Wonder where Reeves got the design from?

We need a "like" button!! LOL

Agreed, my biggest gains with spray were right out of the hole.

[Reeves]

I wasn't looking for ET's as much as I was being able to cross the finish line before the other guy.......and it worked for 1 run FOR SURE!!! LOL

Yup, it has some strong similarities, apart from being a 4-1 rather than a tri-y, and the external gate setup, and Tial housing of course. Warren wanted to utilize the swingvalve type design and I hate them, so there were big differences needed for that jazz.

If it's eyeballed correctly, Reeve's existing downpipe should bolt up to that one. Guess we will see some year, haha!

[Shadow]

Wierd, I've had Great results with internal gates! Never a problem. External gates on the other hand I've had to change springs and fart around trying to hold boost stable.

Just goes to show you, two different ppl with different experience = different results! lol

Yup. On turbo systems I build and tune on an AEM EMS, I can control a car to hit and maintain within .1-.2 psig from start line to finish, based on vehicle speed as an input. Even my co-workers 35R Evo maintains 18 psi +/- .5psig while sitting on the starting line with anti-lag at 6600 rpm. As soon as the car moves it starts tapering in control to wherever we want.

Well that explains it right there.lol I'm only at the " +/- 1/2lb boost control " down the track. Just haven't got to the "crazy control" level yet!

Yeah, it becomes a lot bigger of an ordeal when the car is making anywhere from 50-100 WHP per psi when you're in a traction limited situation. It was never a concern of mine in the older TM stuff back in the day, but it could help guys like you and Reeves to get some better control of the short times.
