Title: I just bought a 2001 2.2 CDX ...woohoo !
Post by: heave on 01 May 2009, 16:53:11

Hi everyone...

Ive just stepped back into the exciting world of Omegas.

I used to have a 1998 2.5V6, but the cambelt went snap 2 years ago and I had to let it go to the big Omega knackers yard in the sky.

I picked up a 2001 2.2 CDX in the week.  very nice car, just needs a good service so thats my Bank Holiday all sorted :-)

Anyone got any tips on how to get a few more BHP out of the 2.2 Petrol ? I'm already missing the grunt of my old 2.5 V6.

Top forum BTW !  Ive belonged to a few different ones in the past and this one looks superb !


 :D
