If you are not familiar with the term "torque steer" you need to drive a Omni GLH, Shelby charger, or a srt4. It is fun, but you have to learn what to expect. They are different to drive hard.

Is it a turbo? I had 2. One was a HP/carb engine (first year) and the next was a efi turbo. I had shelby chargers also, not as fast as the 4drs. Never had a glhs though. The cars feel faster than they are because of the tq steer. I would get it if I were you.

We use to put a air bleed on the line for the waste gate to kick it up some.. the O2 can drive the fuel up about 12% to stay with the added boost

Very true.. I had Shelby CSX (Shadow) with a 2.2 Mitsu turbo motor & it hauled butt in stock form & with some more boost & mods, they could hang with 5.0 mustangs in a street race. Lots of torque steer with the FWD & turbo power. GLH had the 2.2 with 175 hp & torque and the Shadow had a bit more torque at 205 lbss. I do remember the shift linkage was the pits & it had a little turbo lag, but when it kicked in, the CSX was a pocket rocket.

It seems to me either Road and Track or Car and Driver did an article when that car first came out. They were at a bigtime road course with the Shelby GLH and a 350 GT R Mustang. There were editors from all the major mags laughing it up about what a joke is was running this 4 door tape striped econobox against a "real" Shelby car. They weren't laughing when the econbox beat the "real" one into turn 1 and proceeded to put a lap on it... They did it again only this time at a 30 MPH rolling start so as not to beat on a $$$$ Mustang with the drag race standing start. GLH caught the 350 before the end of the second lap and proceeded to put a lap on it again. I have been a big fan ever since. Kevin

How hard to put a turbo glh into to 14's? How about 13's? If it's fairly simple to go low 14's or high 13's this could be a riot around town!

I had problems with the trans, in two of them I split second gear and it went through the case. One turbo I and one turbo II.

There was lots of stuff for the 2.2's, a twin cam head, bigger turbo, different cams, bigger injectors. Real easy to make over 300 horses with them. Weak link was the manual trans and the half shafts.
