oh yeah... from looking at a flywheel on the omega it looks rather like just a solid plate with six bolt holes in the centre and 6 mountings for the torque convertor

LOL, if its an auto, no flywheel!

 

yep..a small detail..

[cem_devecioglu]

buy something like


will do the job..

Engine Porn!  

some like it different

I thought that!  

How heavy is the torque convertor? Im sure my Auto Omega revs up quicker than my Man 2.5 Vectra gsi  :-/

its a DMF flywheel so it cant be lightened can it???

MV6's is DMF anyway i assume they all are

[ngrainqey]

Correct....a lightened flywheel only help an engien on a dyno........when connected to a gearbox, prop, read diff and then a 1.7 ton car....they make break all difference!

Plus, you wont take any weight off an Omega flywheel as its a complex multi piece dual mass setup!

As for the exhaust maniofld to head matching....they are already matched!

riiight.... what about opening up the ports to the exhaust manifold and matching the bore in the manifold? (obv would need sports exhaust etc to get benefit)

Stick a supercharged V8 in there and have done with it!  

lol i'm going to invest time money and patience in a v8 omega project but not this minute
i want to work upto a big project like that haha!
i'v thought about a twin turbo project but need to be arsed to buy two t25 garret turbos haha!

Where can I find T25's cheap???  

go on uksaabs.co.uk i think or .com
all the 9000 turbos have t25's... probs just need new bearings haha!

[ngrainqey]

might do away with the multiram, get an induction kit then bolt two t25's on
just have to find the right head spacer plates haha!
think it'll want the 2mm ones (and yes i'v been asking about to do with turboing the omega) apparently you need a piggyback or standalone ecu for the fueling

if you dont decrease the compression ratio and arrange the pressure of turbo I think you cant reach even 4500 RPM :-/

and the last thing you hear will be a bang!

Check the engine is strong enough - seem to remember its not.  I think the 3.2 has steel crank, that may help

Oh Dear, Oh Dear, Oh Dear.... Whys everything have to be complicated  

[ngrainqey]

the turbos are fine at 6psi with standard mapping...but could do with mapping better..
and it's called engine lockup
it's fine aslong as the comp ratio isnt too high so need some spacer plates unless i just intend on using it upto 6psi (which i dont if i do it right )

[ngrainqey]

..right bed time!
cya later

[albitz]

Dream of little flywheels and big turbos.
