Title: Omega sleeper?
Post by: Munchy on 17 January 2014, 20:15:39

Hi all I have a 2.2 and fancy giving it a bit of a makeover anyone heard of one being made into a sleeper, turbo or tuning one up?

You can try putting a 'Go faster stripe' on it, or give it a good wax & polish so it slips through the air easier  ;D
Seriously though, the polish would probably give the best result! :P

It really depends on how deep your pockets are.

need to change the motor, the long stroke 2.2 won't do a turbo well, i really want to do this also but in all honesty the car is just so heavy iw ould rather buy an old saab turbo and put my money into that

Costs about the same as ten Omegas... alternatively your car and £300 would see you in a 3.0/3.2 v6 with similar performance  ;D
