SMIM Showdown! Lets figure this out once and for all! - Page 10

Whoops! Fixed it.

Yes, The R.E.E.F. is Pusit's manifold. REEF stands for Radiused Entry Equal Flow. He asked me to change its name.

Well, done on the Race Prototype Pushit! Perfect flow distribution and the highest cfm, looks to be a very nice manifold.

I am working on prices right now. I am going to stay with 1 design fist most, but custom manifolds can be ordered upon request and will be priced accordingly. Thanks for looking.

Hello everyone,

My name is Tim and I am the sales/marketing representative from Beyond Redline Performance in Green Bay.

First and foremost I'd like to thank Greg and this community for including us in this testing process. We would like nothing more than for our product to be in an equal and unbiased test such as this. However as many of you have eluded to, the flow bench is only half the story.

Greg has already made mention of this, but we would like to host an intake manifold shoot out here at our dyno facility in the near future. We have an AWD Dynojet dynamo meter with dual eddy current brakes that was installed within the last 12 months. As some of you may or may not know Dynojet is the only dyno manufacturer who's testing results CANNOT be modified by changing certain variables. In other company's products roller weight and diameter can be altered by the owner/operator to skew resulting data. The only changes that can be made on a Dynojet product are reporting standards, eg: SAE, STD, STP, etc.

In order to be completely impartial and fair to the rest of the companies involved we would like a member to donate their vehicle for testing purposes. Ideally it would be in the 400-500 whp range, and have good reliable tuning capabilities such as AEM EMS or DSM/ECM Link. Also, we would like to invite anyone interested to attend the testing and witness any and all tuning changes that are made. We could also use some additional man power because changing intake manifolds can be time consuming and difficult.

If we can make everything work out, we would like to get this done sooner than later as we tend to get very busy the closer we get to the warmer months. Again, thanks for including us in this, and I look forward to further contributing to this forum and getting to know its members.

I can be reached vie email at: tim@beyondredline.com with any questions or reply here to this thread as I am keeping tabs on it.

Do you have any specific dates in mind? Sounds like it could be a fun 2 day weekend trip if some of us wanted to head out there to help. I wouldn't mind helping, but I have quite the hectic schedule so I'd have to know when.

Beyond-Redline · 01-05-2009

After checking with the shop's schedule we would be looking at the weekend of 31st. I would think we could knock this out in one day starting early on Saturday. We would want the test car here on Friday the 30th so we could get it strapped down and any lingering issues figured out.

If people wanted to make the trip on Friday and stay for the test on Saturday let me know and I will do my best to arrange special pricing for accommodation's.

I'm exciting about this and hope other people are too.

Anyone willing to donate their car for a test mule?

Tim

**Halon** · 01-05-2009

Sorry I can't make it that weekend. If it was the following weekend (2/7) I'd be able to come and help turn a wrench. I'm sure you'll find some other volunteers though.

Good luck with the testing guys.

turbotalon1g · 01-05-2009

Damn, I just did a 3 day up in canada, this would of been sweet, but my dsm is on jackstands and I honestly have no clue when it will be out again.
Thanks for doing this.

iroc_g · 01-22-2009

Been a while since I have heard anything. Has anybody voluntered for the Dyno session at Beyond Redline?

hippiekiller · 01-22-2009

Might be worth it to hit up the guys on Widsm.org a lot of them are closer to Tim and he very well may have some customers who would meet the demands anyway. Almost certain they are a site sponsor over there as well.

iroc_g · 01-29-2009

Well, I have been contacted by a local shop, offering their dyno for the testing. Obviously, we need the IM's and a car, but if there is interest, maybe we can do this here!

Pushit2.0 · 01-29-2009

I have no problem with testing the 2 manifolds I made, and I could help out with the swap fest.

~John

**Halon** · 01-29-2009

If it's local, I'd love to help! And depending on when, I'd consider donating my car as well.

Swifty1638 · 01-29-2009

same here.

Pushit2.0 · 01-30-2009

Swiftcheese your car would do well for this test.

**Shane@DBPerformance** · 01-30-2009

I think a DSMLink car with a 2G MAS would be best. A MAS car will automatically compensate fueling if there is more or less airflow and DSMLink has great knock control and datalogging.

Pushit2.0 · 01-30-2009

It would be easy to setup and run on a link car, but I am sure there are people out there that would say "Well if the car had a stand alone it would make so much more power". At this point I would take what ever you can get your hands on.

~John

**Halon** · 01-30-2009

Well FWIW, mine uses DSMLink and I run a 2G MAS, althought the MAS may have a few honeycombs removed. I'm sure you'll have plenty of volunteers. Just let me know.

Shane, your wifes car is also DSMLink and 2G MAS isn't it?

**Shane@DBPerformance** · 01-30-2009

Her's just has a chip, so it's not the best form of integrated tuning/datalogging.

I think Swifty's is too laggy and doesn't make the power it should for the boost, so it might not be the best setup if it has a head, motor, or turbo problem causing it.
