« on: 30 September 2012, 01:48:08 »Rule no 1 on Modifying a car... Don't ask Tunnie.
Factually, he's right though. There isn't anything simple to increase bhp without compromising some other area of performance, or we'd all have it.
Exhaust manifold is said to be the restriction, so free flowing exhausts and inlet mods have no positive effect at all. ...no after market manifolds exist for an auto, and the ones for a manual fowl the steering on full lock, apparently.
So then your into diy manifolds and that's expensive. But likely story there would be a top end gain in power at the expense of low down drive ability perhaps?
3.0/3.2 cams into 2.6/2.5 gives good results going by posts here, but to me, buy a 3.2 or a 3.0 in the first place. But each to their own as they say.
[/quote] Thanks Chris I won't say what I really think of tunnie because I will get banned from here, suffice to say I am not amused at being called a Chav or to get a Saxo. The man is quite obviously a cloth cap person.

The 4.22 dif comes with the 2.6.. So for you, as it's not your thread you cheaky hijacker
There is info in one of the guide sections as to what dif comes with what engine. You'll need to do some Maths and see which one suits best. Although options are limited. But 2woody may be able to fettle one for you.
The obvious upgrade for you as fit a 3.2 lump. But that's another thing altogether.

I repeat engine mods filters and exhaust upgrades not just noise, and deffinately NOT a Chav. seems some people just can't face others modifying. 
Just wondering if there are engine mods / filters / exhuast manifolds / systems, that sort of thingNo chav just wanted to know if there are any companies that do products for omega's
Funny, but those items you list are just what a 'chav' would want to add to an already superb car with more 'extras' comfort and performance than most of its competitors! Personally I prefer then to be as original and 'understated' so that when some wally who thinks he has a power machine gets left in the wind scratching his head in wonder!
The only way you will get any help or advice that you are seeking on the forums is to be honest and upfront so the members know what is required. Not to state your needs in full I think it is a waste of our time.
Now please tell us all in detail what you hope to acheive and no doubt you will get many replies and correct advice. At the end of the day though it is up to you whether you listen to those who have had miggys for donkeys years and know them well enough to know what works and what doesn't or ignore it. Can't say fairer than that can I? Hope you will be happy at the end result though and its cost effectiveness for the likely very tiny gains.
You are being very general again, what exactly are you hoping to achieve?
Lowering the car?
Stiffer suspension?
Engine (bear in mind there is little you can do to a 3.2 to increase power)
upgrade speakers?
Give us a clue

« on: 26 September 2012, 20:22:18 »Not a massive amount you can do to increase engine power, other than service it properly. Ignore the crap that the likes of Courtney say, they are wrongYes car is in great shape engine serviced regular and only done 50,000 I know it has alot of power I am only really just looking to see if there is anything that can be done to increase power, probably will leave it alone though.
There are improvements to handling, although the standard is quite capable (Elite excluded) once you understand the car. Assuming its in good working order.
