I'm always up for a meet and you're right there are quite a few Omega's in the area but there does'nt seem to be much interest shown, I usually go up to the Oxford meet(work permitting)or shoot down to the Kent meet both of which take about an hour and a bit to get too.So it would be great to get a meet going in this area as there must be a few places locally which could be used to get it started :y

Deffo, Im actually admin on OON, We do hold regular meets locally. Maybe we could start a local joint meet as long as OOF admins are ok with it. Could be pretty cool and a bigger turn out. Plently of locations.

Ill start coming to the oxford and kent meet on here either way too as they always look good  8-)

Nicer weather is coming now aswel :y

when i say change header tank, I mean if you could get one thats clear.  I've seen a couple.  Its just the xisting one looks it may spoil the end result imho.

Just a thought, maybe also change air filter box to performance one.  I think eurocarparts do a blue(don't quote me).  Only a suggestion as apart from looking neater it will give advantage towards performance because of air flow :y

Not into performance cone filters etc, Loose performance from heat soak. I keep my panel filter new on a regular basis (so its as good as a performance panel filter) and also have a second cold air feed coming out of the bottom of the airbox, through the arch/wing and to the bumper grille. So theres two air feeds. Always done this on my cars and found the best results on a rolling road and top end acceleration 8-)

Def going to change my header tank now though, Nice little touch. Thanks alot! :y

Ta mate

Brought it from Reddot Racing, They had it on their rolling road with just a exhaust and got 241.7bhp at the flywheel. Since then ive done alot more but havnt had it rolling roaded yet. Looking to get it done once ive fitted lpg

Obviously lpg is like 110 octane so once fitted im going to get my unichip set up for high octane fuel. Should gain a little bit of power from the lpg then.

Should see at least 250-260 but i dont like guessing so will see  :)

Ive also got port and polished cyclinder heads in the shed, So next year i might do a top end build with the heads, get the cams reprofiled maybe and then get the unichip set up to match.

Very tidy and like some of the other guys said, White is not always so good but this one stands totally apart. I think your number plates have the wrong (illegal) typeface though?
Also a lovely pic in plod form too.

Why oh why was there never a V8 Omega????
Such a missed oppurtunity.
Look forward to the Cadillac ATS & ATS-V. Maybe a re-badged one will replace the Miggy as a RWD runner?
