Engine SWAP Omega 2.5 with I6 BMW

(1/2) > >>

halhorn73:
Hi
I'm plannig to put a I6 BMW engine in a 2.5 B Omega, has any body tried that?

Nick W:
Which engine?
Any of them will be a lot of work, and unless you're using one of the bigger capacity recent I6s, won't give any more usable power than a stock 3.0l V6.

Doctor Gollum:
The only BMW engine swap that makes sense is to swap the 2.5td with the 3.0/3.5 td from a late E39.

Otherwise, just buy a V8 E39 ;)

Shackeng:
I fitted a performance chip to my 2.5td, I can’t remember the figures, but the performance increase was impressive, for only an hours work and ~ £70.  :y

Andy H:
halhorn73 has a V6 in his profile.

The good news is that Opel demonstrated that a BMW I6 will fit. The bad news is that halhorn73 will need to recreate all sorts of parts that he would already have if he was starting with a 2.5td
